The intrepid Wisconsin DNR crew of Mark Anderson and John Nelson set another world record Bufflehead single party high count of 15,565 in Pool 9 of the Mississippi River (includes both MN and WI portions of the river) on 7 December 2009. If that wasn't enough, they also had 12,859 Common Goldeneyes which crushes the published high count in Karl J. Bardon's "High Counts of Birds in Minnesota," (MOU Occasional papers Number IV, April 2002) of 4,500 in the same area on 18 Nov 2000. Nice counts by this duo but no records were 62,000 Canvasback and 8,700 Gadwall recorded on the same survey Thanks to Eric Nelson of USFWS, Winona for forwarding these counts. Bob Russell, USFWS
