Friends abound in Bird Island, a community located on Highway 212 about an hour and a half drive west of the Twin Cities in Minnesota.

Before development, the area was covered with many trees and species of birds, surrounded by a lower swampy area: thus, the name Bird Island.  The City is known for its hometown pride, good quality services and its close proximity to recreational and cultural activities.
