The Yellow-billed Loon was relocated at Agate Bay 11:00 am by Kim
Eckert's Minnesota Birding Weekend. It was present until at least
12:00 noon. It was outside of the breakwall, to the east, out in
front of the lighthouse. When originally seen at 11:00 it was faily
close to shore, but eventually moved quite a ways out. It spent a
lot of time diving, so you had to be persistent to see it in the
waves.
This bird was reported to MN-Bird late on Thursday evening, and was
originally seen on Tuesday morning. Birders looked without success
for it yesterday.
