Sorry for the belated post.  Thought I'd let you all know, I saw a Peregrine 
at Queen's Bluff last Wed., March 3rd.  I confess I don't spend a lot of 
time here.  It is on my commute (Hwy 61, mile marker 13, about 12 miles 
south of Winona), and I am usually in a hurry to get to work or from work, 
but I usually check the snag coming out from the cliff face, and Mar. 3rd 
was the 1st day I had seen a Peregrine here since last fall.

PS  Got to see the Smew.  Before I even knew half the birds of Minnesota, I 
was a Russian Major, and focused on the Smew in the Birds of the USSR field 
guide as one I REALLY wanted to see, so that bird goes down as my favorite 
escapee - maybe I'll make it back to Russia one day and find a wild one, but 
my avian heart right now lies in Costa Rica, where I'm going in a month.  
Woo hoo!
