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!
