Brett Ostby: Must we repeat the same mistakes?
The passenger pigeon was once so common, it seemed inexhaustible. Today, many think the great blue heron is common and that it can thrive somewhere else. Our past should teach us such thinking is a fallacy.

On Dec. 27, 1929, Dr. William J. Mayo wrote a letter to Minnesota’s foremost ornithologist, Thomas Sadler Roberts. Dr. Roberts considered it so important he published it in his book “The Birds of Minnesota, Volume 1.”
In that letter, Dr. Mayo recounted what he knew of the last roost of a once common bird that frequented Olmsted County every spring and summer. Some 50 years earlier, he and his brother, Charlie, visited a roost of passenger pigeons in a “large track of timber” some 12 miles northwest of Rochester, in a hamlet called Genoa. Passenger pigeons were so abundant that they blocked the light of the sun when they took to the air.
