6/1/11: Nice mix of shorebirds at Minnesota Point on this evening, including: Ruddy Turnstone, Sanderling, Semi Palmated Sandpiper,
Spotted Sandpiper, and one White Rumped Sandpiper. The shorebirds were mostly present on the lakeside of Minnesota Point, from the airport to the Wisconsin Entry. At approximately 08:15 a gray jay was observed moving towards the soccer field, hugging the bayside shoreline by the airport...I've got a flight shot of the bird for any doubters. Shortly there after, a white winged scoter was observed hanging out very friendly like with some scaup. To see an average picture of the bird (where unfortunately the whites of the scaup are completely blown....), check the showcase section of MOU.
