Today, while scouting ice fishing locations on Minnetonka I also birded.
Most of the main bays are frozen over (though not safe ice). One exception
was Brown's Bay which had over 1700 common mergansers. The east side of the
power plant at Black Dog had thousands of mallards and Canada geese but very
few gulls and nothing of special interest. Here's hoping a glaucous shows up
on Calhoun before it freezes over.
