At Loon Lake in Waseca, noon today:

Ross's Goose (white) - 1
Greater White-fronted Goose - 7
Cackling Goose - dozens, perhaps hundreds
Canada Goose - 1500 (wild guess)
N. Shoveler - some
Ring-necked Duck - 6 or 8
Hooded Merganser - 2 (males)
Ruddy Duck - 1
Mallard - lots

At Clear Lake in Waseca, 3:15 this afternoon:

N. Shoveler - 10-20
Canvasback - 2 (male & female)
Bufflehead - 10-20
Common Goldeneye - 20-30
Common Merganser - 1 (female)
Canada Goose & Mallard - lots

Loon Lake was about half frozen; Clear Lake was almost completely open.  That may soon change, but I think part of Loon Lake is kept open by an aeration system.  Lots of waterfowl gather there even when it's frozen.
