[mou] White-faced Ibis- Douglas County

[ppedersen6@charter.net]

Today (Sunday 4/25)at noon I saw a White-faced Ibis on the west side of Lake Osakis in Douglas County.

It is on the west side of Douglas Cty 10 about 1.2 miles northeast of the intersection of Douglas County 3 and 10. In other words, go around the west side of Lake Osakis and look on the west side of the road. It looked like a promising spot for other things, but I only saw Ring-billed Gulls, Forester's Terns, Franklin's Gull, many kinds of duck and both yellowlegs sp.
