I found a Northern Mockingbird this morning, 22 May 2015 at 8:00 am, on my regular bird
walk around Commonwealth Terrace Cooperative (student and family housing, on the south
end of the University of Minnesota, St. Paul campus) and adjacent Sarita Wetland. The bird
was present at the tennis courts, which are east of Fifield Street and north of Gibbs Avenue
on the property, which is owned by the University of Minnesota. The tennis courts are not
visible from roads, so if you want to try for the bird, I suggest looking up Commonwealth
Terrace Cooperative on Google Maps to see the layout of roads and sidewalks within the
property (the tennis courts are easy to see in aerial imagery, located southwest of the
Google Maps marker for Commonwealth Terrace Cooperative), parking along Como Avenue
just to the south (free streetside parking), and walking to the tennis courts area. When I left
the bird, it was in the tree at the southwest corner of the courts.
