Today (Sunday) I birded around Floodwood in St. Louis County visiting the sewerage lagoons and Hedboom trail. I found lots of good birds, but the most interesting were two Horned Grebes seen swiming at the sewerage lagoon and two Least Bitterns heard calling, one in the weeds on the west side of the first lagoon. The second one was calling from a marsh outside of the lagoons north of the inner gate.
Crossbills were hanging around town in Floodwood last week. I was unable to refind them. Steve Weston
