Whimbrel in Big Stone County

'Rare Regular' in Minnesota - Five or fewer records in Big Stone County for the Spring season

This evening while birding around Thielke Lake in Big Stone County, John Hockema and I had a flock of 43 Whimbrels circle back and forth over us for a few minutes. We both heard the flock vocalize as well as have great looks at them.
