Shawn Conrad and I birded the North Shore today from Two Harbors to =
Duluth.
At the Two Harbors golf course we found 3 cackling geese in among the =
flock
of Canada Geese.  At the mouth of the Knife River (near Emily's Deli) we =
saw
several Lapland Longspurs in a flock of Horned Larks.  We saw very few =
birds
at Park Point (except for the large flocks of Canada Geese and =
Ring-billed
Gulls).  However, we did find a small flock of Sanderlings (about a =
dozen)
and Dunlin (8 of them). They were on the lake side near the boardwalk =
that
is closest to the airport. =20
