[mou] Heron Lake

[JELLISBIRD@aol.com]

Spent this morning at N. Heron Lake and environs. From 1100to 1400 White 
Pelicans in constant motion, hundreds of Gulls, Black Terns and ducks at too far a 
distance to ID made it quite a spectacle. Also saw an Am Bittern. A canoe 
would have been a treat. Missed Sat evening on the Great Tailed Grackles and the 
Black Headed Gull, but it was late. Saw a flock of 12-15 Grey Partridge fly 
across the road about 2 miles due N. of the Red Rock Prairie. Spotted a 
RHWoodpecker on Nicollet Co 5 about 1.5-2.5 miles E. of MN 15.
