While the lake lacked the numbers and some of the diversity of yesterday, it was still worth a look. After finally seeing the pair of Red-necked Grebes, we were treated to some possible breeding behavior on their part. Our thanks goes to Ron Erpelding for pointing out what seemed to be the gatherin

Salt Lake in Lac Qui Parle County is still primarily ice covered except for the south west corner and along the edges. That being said the temperature out here today is 57 degrees with a 15 mph wind from the south. I would hope that the ice will be gone this week with consistent warmer weather.
