I saw the Smew at 10:30 this morning under the bridge. At the time it was standing on the ice preening. No leg bands could be seen.
It was a good day for raptors: American Kestrel (4) Bald Eagle Golden Eagle (possible) Sharp-shined Hawk (2) Cooper's Hawk (2) Northern Goshawk (possible) Red-tailed Hawk Red-shouldered Hawk The Red-shouldered Hawk was seen sitting above the bridge where the Smew was. No large numbers of Horned Lark yet. Bruce Baer Bloomington, MN
