Two of the Snowy Egrets reported by Randy were still present Saturday, April
15 from 2:30 to at least 3:00. The exact location is west of Willmar on Hwy
12 to Pennock. Go north on Cty. 1 to Cty. 27 and turn left (or west).
You'll come to the spot after 1.4 miles, with Swan Lake to the right and the
spillway going off to the right. The 2 Snowy Egrets were easily visible from the
road. A Great Egret was with them, providing excellent studies of the size
contrast, head markings, bills - and those bright yellow feet. They were
still feeding when I left at 3:00.
Also of note on Swan Lake:
Western Grebe (1)
Red-necked Grebes
Lots of Ruddy Ducks
A decent variety of dabbling and diving ducks
