[mou] Dowitchers

[Forest & Kirsten Strnad]

>From the FOREST  along the Straight River:
   
  This afternoon Kirsten and I birded in Steele County, south and east of Owatonna.The usual until we got east of Owatonna.  On Rose Street, 2 1/4th miles west of the entrance to Rice Lake State Park at a water puddle in the field at the intersection of Rose Street and S. E. 64th Avenue. we saw three Dowitchers.  One was a LONG-BILLED DOWITCHER and two were SHORT-BILLED DOWITCHERS.  Gary Johnson and his wife, from Owatonna, were there,  as we pulled up behind their car, and called the birds the same species.
