This morning Allen Loken and I birded Canal Park, where we had one very beautiful adult GLAUCOUS GULL and a few Herring Gulls. Overall it was a quiet morning (gull-wise), but other additions to this morning's sightings included a PEREGRINE FALCON that we first saw feeding on the ice out on the lake. It was breaking off parts of some carcass out on the ice. Allen and I took a coffee break about 1/2 way through our morning of birding, and as we pulled into the parkinglot just down the road in Canal Park, we saw the Peregrine Falcon land on one of the old water towers overlooking Hwy 35. Pretty cool! Duck-wise, we saw lots of Common Goldeneyes swimming around this morning, as well as roughly a dozen Common Mergansers and a few Mallards.
Good birding! Erik Bruhnke Duluth, MN [email protected] www.pbase.com/birdfedr/naturallyavian ---- Join or Leave mou-net:http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives:http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
