Hi Forest, Schaar's Bluff's formal name is: Spring Lake Park, Schaar's Bluff unit.
Directions: Take the CR42 exit from Hwy 52 (this is technically in the city of Rosemount between Pine Bend and the community of Coates. Go east on CR 42. Follow CR42 east as it joins and then leaves Hwy 55. When you turn left from Hwy 55 to CR42 you will see the sign directing you to Spring Lake Park. Idell is the second left turn off of CR42. It is well marked with a sign pointing you toward Schaar's Bluff. The road makes a left turn (and becomes 127th Street, but I don't think this intersection is signed) The bird has been observed on the wires from this turn almost to the entrance to the park. It has also been observed on the tops of the trees along the road and on the next grove of trees to the north. It has also been seen across the field on the trees on the other side of the field. This bird is fairly activeand can be quite easy to spot, however it at times seems to vanish for extended time.
