Conservation Officer Tales

Although the Cook County News-Herald knows that the majority of sportsmen and women are law-abiding folks, there are a few that run afoul of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Conservation Officers. Periodically, the DNR provides a report of some of the miscreants the Conservation Officers (CO) have encountered. The News-Herald shares these stories as a reminder to all to be safe and to follow the rules!

First preliminary results 2024 for the Grand Marais Audubon Christmas Bird Count

We had a good day of birding; the temperatures were almost above freezing, and the wind was not too terrible. No snow or rain made it easier to see and be out looking around. We had generally decent numbers for all species with the conditions. Looking at the results, we all did well, considering the winter blast right before the count probably moved the last of the stragglers out and moved in some more of our winter regulars.
