Yesterday afternoon there were 5 Black-crowned Night Herons roosting along Minnehaha Creek, just next to the bridge over Nokomis Ave. Four of them were dozing in the sun, while the fifth was preening and checking out the passers-by.
Under the 28th Ave. bridge, a very small and dark flycatcher was evidently building a nest. The bird made repeated trips between the stream-bank and a support under the bridge, apparently to gather mud.
