Our second day in the Sax Zim Bog was another amazing day. We started early, hoping to catch a glimpse of Sharp-tailed Grouse as they moved off of their lek. The big birds of open plains like Sharp-tailed Grouse and Greater Prairie-chickens find areas called leks to perform elaborate courtship displays from.
A space to share the adventures I have while birding in the State of Ohio and beyond.

Birding the Bog -- Day 1
No offense to Ohio, which gets plenty cold, but Minnesota is a seriously cold State. As a result, there are some seriously cool birds, which are often tough to see anywhere else. It wasn't hard to talk my younger brother Daniel into coming with me for a long weekend of birding in the Sax Zim Bog; it really only took a few pictures...
