Dad and I quickly drove over to Purgatory Creek in Eden Prairie after reading about the Turnstone and Phalarope. As of 8:50 this evening, the Ruddy Turnstone was still present among the Ring-billed Gulls and Caspian Terns on the island behind the Flagship corporate center. We were unable to locate the phalarope, but the light was fading so we had very little time to look for it.
