This WE, I had 7 fox sparrows under the feeders plus 1 white throated sparrow 
plus the usual suspects.  A quick survey of surrounding farm ponds and marshes 
yielded good numbers of greater yellow legs; ducks were not numerous but there 
were all three mergansers, buffleheads, shovelers, green wing and blue wing 
teal, 1 lesser scaup, ring necks and mallards; pied bill grebes and geese.  The 
most interesting behavior was at the Lauritzen Marsh:  two trumpeters were just 
hanging out - two more flew in and all four started courtship behavior - 
interesting - maybe about claiming territory??  By Sunday there were lots of 
hermit thrushes. - Susan Anderson, Burnett Co.
