This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday, March 4th, 2010.

As many as 23 LONG-TAILED DUCKS were at Agate Bay in Two Harbors, Lake

on the Mississippi River near Sartell on the 27th.

Five SPRUCE GROUSE were found in Lake County on the 26th along the Stony
River Forest Road, seven miles south of state highway 1.

On the 28th, a few BOHEMIAN WAXWINGS were seen in a flock of CEDAR
WAXWINGS in Chisago County, along the Sunrise River near its junction
with the St. Croix River and just across from the Wild River State Park
parking lot.

Several birders have noted that RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS have returned to
the marshes across the southeastern parts of the state. Other species
