I forgot to include 2 Soras (1 observed, 1 heard) in the sightings for Morgan Park yesterday. Debbie Waters spotted the first one and we got a quick look at it, and another called soon after from another part of the marsh. Both were in the marshy area where Stewart Creek goes under the RR tracks before emptying into Spirit Lake, close to Smithville.
Also of interest, in light of the current talk about Clough Island, there is an active Bald Eagle nest on the small island just off the SW corner of Clough Island. The nest is actually just barely on the MN side of the border. An adult has been incubating for at least a week. Jim Barrett Duluth
