Hi all, Kevin Smith phoned me to tell me that he had just seen the Scoter from Boom Island Park on the east end of the Plymouth bridge in Minneapolis. I was working and able to swing by the park and view the duck accompanied by 7 Scaup from the south side of the park at 3:45 pm (Tuesday). Also seen today: A pair of Wood Duck flying over Eagan heading in the direction of my lake. A pair of Bufflehead in a pond in the cloverleaf of I-35 and CR 46. Viewed at 70 mph. A flock of grackles in a tree in Burnsville. A flock of cowbirds in a tree along Hwy 280. I am still not hearing a Song Sparrow.
