At 12:40 PM today (11/17), I found a drake Barrow's Goldeneye in the  
Duluth harbor. There is a green park bench near the boat ramp at the  
Recreation Area on Park Point, and if one sits on that bench and  
points a spotting scope towards the Holcium Elevator at the Port  
Terminal, the bird in question was directly in line with the elevator.  
There were about 400 Common Goldeneye, five Black Scoters, and a male  
Long-tailed Duck in this same area. The Barrow's was about 400 yards  
away and based on a somewhat truncated black shoulder spur, appears to  
be the same indiviudal that overwintered in Duluth beginning 11/1/2008.
