In response to a number of birder inquiries, spoke to Sherburne NWR 
personnel this morning - the Wildlife (auto) Tour is scheduled to be opened 
Sunday 4/23.

Sightings this weekend were a little slower - first of year Great Egret 
along Blue Hill Trail & couple of Purple Martins along Mille Lacs Lake only 
true new birds.  Finally found initial Northern Pintail of spring along 
Vineland Road; anyone know how their population is faring?

Good birding to all!
