The May 30 Star-Tribune had an obituary for Josephene Herz who died in
Green Valley AZ on May 14 at age 96.More many years Jo was a significant
figure in Minnesota birding.She was one of the editors,along with Walter
Breckenridge and Ken Morrison, of Where To Find Birds In
Miinnesota.First published in 1950,this was one of the first guides to
places to find birds,even predating Pettingill. From her home on
Christmas Lake and the Excelsior Christmas count,her birding activity
became world-wide in an era prior to the advent of the organized bird
tours of today.
