Happy Monday! To brighten your day, check out this image taken by DNR staffer Tom Burri of a mom and baby ruffed grouse in a tree near Baudette!

Thanks for the newsletter photo feature, @wildlifesociety! I was lucky to spend every morning during the spring field season at prairie-chicken and sharp-tailed grouse leks, and was treated to birds booming right outside my blind window on this particular morning.

Friday Fights! At first I was disappointed this didn’t turn out sharp. Then I looked at it & luv how it flows like liquid. An abstract look at a fight between a Prairie Chicken & a Sharptail grouse on the Minnesota prairie. #prairiechicken #grouse #spring #minnesota #prairie

Captured this interesting behavior at a greater prairie-chicken lek: a northern harrier lands and observes the commotion at the lek in the early morning #prairie #wildlife #prairiechickens #Minnesota

Spring on the Minnesota prairie. Male Prairie chickens doing their spring dances to attract a mate, challenge other males, & welcoming in Spring. Your Sunday morning Prairie Zen. Volume up & enjoy! #prairiezen #prairiechickens #spring #minnesota #prairie

Pasque flowers in bloom today near Cannon Falls — one of the earliest signs of spring on the prairie in Minnesota
