Dakota has diverse habitats bordered and bisected by many rivers and streams including the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers. Great habitat abounds. Dakota county deserves multiple days so our day will be hard choices between good and better birding opportunities. Tufted Titmouse and Blue Grosbeak are regular summer birds, as are Sora and Virginia Rails, and all of the herons and bitterns. Early fall migration could bring shorebirds provided a few locations have suitable habitat. (Base: TBD.) (Dakota County p. 275)
