An immature Little Blue Heron was seen by my MBW group early this  
evening at the Morris sewage ponds in Stevens Co. It was first seen in  
flight as it circled over the NE pond, but unfortunately after a  
minute or so it gradually gained altitude and flew off and out of  
sight towards the west.

Otherwise, it has been a relatively uneventful (and hot & humid) 2  
days in Douglas, Stevens, Grant, and Traverse counties. Only 9  
shorebird species so far (hopefully more in Lac Qui Parle Co tomorrow)  
and 11 warbler species, with no significant waves found. Also seen:  
Eurasian Collared-Doves in Herman (Grant Co), several migrant Western  
Kingbirds in Traverse Co, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher in Osakis (Douglas  
Co), 2 Le Conte's Sparrows (a juvenile with adult) 1 mi W of Swan Lake  
(Douglas Co), and Orchard Oriole along the S shore of Pelican Lake  
(Grant Co).
