Spent most of the day in Mahnomen County, where I observed a few interesting
species. But the wind, made things a little more difficult. My highlight of
the day, was finding an Immature Cattle Egret at the Barnesville Sewage Ponds,
which are in Clay County. The bird was feeding in the grass next to the main
gate of the ponds. There were also 6 Trumpeter Swans present on an unnamed
lake in the NE corner of the intersection of Mahnomen County Road 3, 14 and
132. Tundra Swans and Snow Geese were present on several other lakes, but
waterfowl was very limited in the county. There were also two Northern Shrikes
observed in Mahnomen County. Here are some of the other sightings from the day.
