There's actually some open water in Blue Earth County now Hey birders, There's actually some open water in Blue Earth County now and a few birds are starting to show up. Watonwan WPA had some open water and about 50 Greater White-fronted Geese. Other small open patches had Wood Duck (2), Common Goldeneye (15), Common Merganser (6), and Hooded Merganser (4). It's a trickle, but I'll take it.
There were also lots of raptors yesterday highlighted by 4 Northern Harriers and 2 Rough-legged Hawks at Lincoln WPA. Peregrine Falcons have also returned to their traditional nesting site in Mankato. Happy Spring!
