Late this morning I found 2 Black Scoters on the Mississippi River downriver from the Sauk Rapids bridge. Initially they were on the Stearns County side of the river, and then moved across to the Benton County side. The initial view was from the park in Sauk Rapids on the south side of the bridge, but by late this afternoon Phil Chu had relocated them by going downriver a bit to Wilson Park and then looking upriver. At that time they were directly across the river from the St. Cloud Hospital.
