I did a talk on Herons and Cranes for Wargo. I'll think more about your question and if <br /> I come up with more, I'll let you know. Thanks. <br /> Wayne LeBlanc <br /> From: Pat Branch [ mailto :PBranch @CENTERVILLEMN.com] <br /> Sent: Friday, March 30, 2012 2:52 PM <br /> To: Wayne LeBlanc <br /> Cc: Tom Wilharber; Ben Fehrenbacher; D Love; Steve King; Jeff Paar; John Grahek; Mark Haiden; Kevin <br /> Amundsen; Brian Peterson; Suzanne Seeley; Dallas Larson; Michael Jeziorski; Teresa Bender; Kris <br /> Sweeney <br /> Subject: Re: Peltier Lake Great Blue Heron Report, Feb 2012 <br /> Wayne <br /> Thank you for the nice note. Do you have any specific programs in mind that would <br /> serve to make the public more aware of the wild life habitats in this area. The Parks and Rec <br /> Committee is always open to new ideas. <br /> Pat Branch <br /> On Mar 26, 2012, at 11:43 AM, Wayne LeBlanc wrote: <br /> City of Centerville, <br /> Please find attached a report on the status of the Great Blue Herons on Peltier Lake. If the City <br /> Council, Parks and Recreation or anyone else would like me to explain it further, please let <br /> me know and I will attend any meeting or workshop as schedules permit. <br /> In summary, the great blue herons on Peltier Island had a FANTASTIC 2011 summer! Thanks go to <br /> the city of Centerville and others for their support of the great blue herons and the sensitive <br /> environment. Protections and support of the herons need to continue to try to reach previous <br /> numbers. The number of great blue heron nests more than doubled from 2010 to 2011. <br /> I want to emphasize that the north part of Peltier Lake is very sensitive and requires law enforced <br /> protections. Not only the Great Blue Herons, but the aquatic plants and other wildlife there need <br /> protection. It took four long hard years of gut wrenching work to enact adequate protection and <br /> that guard must never be reduced or environmental damage could be the consequence. The city <br /> of Centerville was a key part of enacting that protection and this is an acknowledgement of that <br /> and another thanks again! <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Wayne LeBlanc <br /> 4/2/2012 <br />
