American Bittern in Nicollet County
2013-05-29

Uncommon in Nicollet County in the Spring season

A pair of American Bitterns flew into the ditch along Nicollet County 5 near Duck Lake. Early morning must be good in this area with Sora, Virginia Rail, Green Heron, Black-crowned Night Heron, and a pair of Trumpeter Swans seen in 15 minute drive-through within 3 miles in the Swan Lake area.
