[mou] Central MN Change - including Cackling

[Pastor Al Schirmacher]

I lied this morning.  Unintentionally.

Early today I reported that waterfowl species diversity was still low (only 
ten species) in the Sherburne & Mille Lacs County area.  A quick check of 
CR2 sewage ponds in Princeton over lunch hour proved me wrong.  An influx of 
Bufflehead, Goldeneye, Hoodeds, Ruddies, Redheads and a single - probable - 
Cackling Goose brought the total to 16 species.

The probable Cackling had the classic much smaller (almost no) neck and 
darker chest, but I was unable to get a good overall size comparison with 
other Canadas in the area.

All birds were visible from the fence, no key (or break in) needed.

Good birding to all!
