Chet Meyers writes: Well, it was cold and the gulls were moving nervously around, but nothing of much news. The lesser black-backed must be staying down at Black Dog, as well as the glaucous seen last night down there. One nice first winter Thayer's gull was on the floating dock on Calhoun... 60 or so common Goldeneye and one commmon merganser (male). Maybe tomorrow. Chet Meyers, Hennepin County
