Around noon today Chad Gustafson and I stopped by Hermie's Corner Bait  
and Tackle, which is a small restaurant/bar/bait shop just east of St.  
Peter on the corner of Hwy. 99 and French Hill Road in Le Sueur  
County. Last winter there were several blackbirds frequenting these  
feeders. Today, we counted 38 Brown-headed Cowbirds (both males and  
females), 5 Red-winged Blackbirds, and 2 Common Grackles. Several  
Mourning Doves were present as well.
