On my noon run that takes me along the river in downtown Minneapolis, there
were the usual returning species that we've heard about so far -- Northern
Rough-winged and Tree Swallows, Eastern Phoebes, Chipping and Song Sparrows and
many others. The Double-crested Cormorants have returned to their fishing and
wing-drying spot just below the Stone Arch Bridge. But the highlight of the
day for me was a Northern Waterthrush probing the sand where the river lapped
the back of Nicollet Island, just east (south) of the bridge over to Boom
Island Park.
Good birding to all.
