[mou] Sandhills in Dakota Cty.

[dan&erika]

I also saw Sandhill Cranes today, 27 march, 7 flying low across Hwy 19
a couple of miles east of Winthrop, Sibley Co., Minnesota.

I again invite any MOU'ers (or others) to join the South Dakota
Ornithologists' Union Meeting in Vermillion, SD on 20-22 May 2005. 
Our guest speaker will be Doug Pratt, artist of many bird books,
including most of the National Geographic Guide.  Should be a good
meeting.  Let me know if you want more information.
