This is the Minnesota Birding Report for March 31st, 2011.

On March 27th, Jim Lind found an AUDUBON'S WARBLER at Lighthouse Point
in Two Harbors, Lake County. It was foraging on the ground and in the
conifers on the east side of the lighthouse fence.

On March 28th, John Cyrus counted 680 TUNDRA SWANS in southwestern
Carver County and on the 30th his total was 1,341.

Today in Grand Rapids, Itasca County, Shawn Conrad saw a EURASIAN

the farthest north this species has yet been reported in the state.
