Few weekend observations, Sherburne NWR & Mille Lacs:

* 100+ American White Pelicans, back side of Auto Tour (part of ND break
up??)
* Possible Red-shouldered Hawk, Blue Hill Trail (distant observation,
"windows" visible but....)
* Numerous Common Terns, Hennepin Island, Mille Lacs Lake
* Black-billed Cuckoo, 175th between Sherburne CR 11 & 48
* Number of Lark Sparrows throughout Sherburne
* Dickcissel, Bobolinks, Grasshopper & Clay-colored Sparrows, Sedge Wren
along ML CR 12 (less than a mile west of 169).

Did not see or hear the Chat this weekend.  Nevertheless, feeling very
blessed to live in this area currently.

Good birding!
