Sunday March 27th Duluth
Fond du Lac bridge over the St. Louis River Locals know that this is THE place to see the earliest spring migrants in Duluth. Even though almost everything else is frozen, the St. Louis opens up and the birds show up. It was a bizarre experience to hear the calls of Bohemian Waxwings mingled with the song of an American Robin...and small flocks of Evening Grosbeaks and Redpolls flying over a diving Pied-billed Grebe!
