Paul, good catch. The correct date was Saturday 1/30. The subsequent Monday post was sluggish. Coincidence: just today we were enjoying a sunny lunch at almost the same location (9402 Congdon/North Shore Drive in Duluth) and observed 7 WWSCs swimming SW-bound ... which is between the Lester and French Rivers. Will add to MOU DB pronto. Nice to see you're resolving birding data issues -- for which we all thank you -- and ignoring football today. See you at MOU PS 12/4. Frank

In an email to mou-net (see below) the date is listed as (Monday) 2/1/2010. Could you tell me if these were two different sightings, or if only one, which date is correct? If two sightings, were both in the same location – between the Lester and French Rovers? Thanks! (This is for the winter seasonal report to be published in The Loon.)
