Hello Tom, and all others,
The New Germany wetlands are quite wide. I don't think binoculars would be
of much value.
That said, I was there on Sunday and the water was very high. Birds that
forage in mud were elsewhere, also the egrets and herons were scarce.
I noticed Purgatory Creek in Eden Prai
Stopped there briefly this afternoon. The water is too high for shorebirds. I
didn’t see anything of interest but I didn’t take the time to scope.

Has anyone revisited Armstrong Wetland Restoration ? I never got there in

Lake Byllesby reservoir is a recreational lake during the summer and they
keep the water levels high until after Labor Day, when they start to draw
down the water and expose the mud flats. For that reason it is better for
shorebirds in the spring than the fall.

Hi Missy (and all),
Yesterday morning at Sherburne NWR there were shorebirds at two spots along
the wildlife drive. Among them were a few from your list, should you be
looking to track them down still (such as Least, Semipalmated Sandpipers,
Solitary), plus Pectoral (just one), both Yellowlegs, Sn
Thanks, Curt - I’ve followed discussions about New Germany with interest. I’m
wondering if there is much satisfaction to be had birding these wetlands with
binoculars or if it is really much better to have a scope (I don’t have a
decent scope).

A great place for shorebirds has been just SW of New Germany, MN. This is
great habitat East of Yancy, that can also be viewed from the next road to

All,
We were heading to western MN to check out shorebirds for a couple of days,
