Probably the most active place to bird in Duluth currently. I was down there for about two hours and birded with Kim Eckert for a short while.
Highlights: - Red-breasted Merganser ( good Christmas Bird Count bird ) - 8 Ring-billed Gulls ( another good Christmas Bird Count bird ) - 2 adult Thayer's Gulls - 1 2nd cycle Thayer's Gull - 1 3rd cycle Thayer's Gull - Nelson Gull ( Glaucous Gull X Herring Gull ) - Thayer's X Iceland Gull - Common Merganser X Hooded Merganser hybrid among the large raft of Common Mergansers. Yesterday Lars Benson and I saw a new hybrid Common Goldeneye.. it had white feathering in the back of the head. * about 300 gulls were seen all together.
