I had a male Eastern Bluebird work his way across the yard today, a big surprise for me as we are on the shore of Lake Waconia in a primarily wooded lot.... FOY and new yard bird, too!
The rookery on the island in Lake Waconia is quite active with Great Blue Herons, haven't seen any Egrets yet. The lake is still ice covered, but not for long. A new crack formed today near shore, probably from the wind blowing toward the north shore. Maybe it will open before all the W-F geese have moved on, but doesn't seem too likely.
