Neil Gilbert photographed a drake Tufted Duck at the Park Point Sailing Club in
Duluth. Coordinates here: 46.73177908304553, -92.05651331099554.
That occurred roughly two hours ago. The last update I have was from an hour
ago, which was an unsuccessful attempt to relocate it.
Good luck!

I was able to find the Tufted Duck right along the shore right next to the
aquarium (with the Goldeneyes). Had views from the road on the NE side and also
from the pagoda like structure from the SW. The latter is the better view.
Bird seen about 9:30.

I am currently observing the Tufted Duck in shipping lane at Canal Park.
The duck is among the large raft of common goldeneyes under the Ariel Lift

Alex, thanks for posting, and thanks to Ben for sleuthing alternative

The TUDU has been observed by many this morning at the Wacouta location. The
views are
distant, and the bird was diving frequently, giving satisfactory looks only.
Not as amazing as
some of the closer photos taken. A scope is absolutely essential. And
midday or afternoon.
Good luck and don't wait until Thursday when the weather gets snowy and colder.

Here are the USFWS regs that outline the different approved ways of marking
"domestic" waterfowl and the associated record-keeping.

raising the birds and they don't follow the regs o
As a birder who's also been raising ducks on and off since the late
90's, I can add my two cents to this saga. The Tufted Duck would be a
specialty item, likely acquired via auction. Also, anyone who owns
such a specimen would likely clip its wings. One isn't going to
purchase a Tufted Duck without
