Sharon and I birded along the North Shore today from Stoney Point up 
to Silver Bay and found a few interesting things:

Cackling Goose - 1 at mouth of Knife River
Bonaparte's Gull - 2 at Burlington Bay in Two Harbors
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker - 28 counted throughout the day
Boreal Chickadee - 1 near mouth of Knife River
Marsh Wren along American Dock Road in Knife River
Our first Horned Larks and American Pipits of the fall

14 sparrow species, including:
2 Vesper Sparrows in field at west end of 2nd Ave. in Two Harbors
3 LeConte's Sparrows - 1 east of Emily's in Knife River and 2 on the 
east side of Silver Bay, south of the AmericInn
Our first Harris's and Fox sparrows of the fall

2 Bobolinks in field across road from Burlington Bay in Two Harbors
