Nathan & I journeyed to portions of the North Shore this Saturday:  Duluth 
(Park Point, primarily), Stoney Point, Knife River, Two Harbors, Highway 2 
(latter new for us).  Highlights included all three scoters (despite having 
only five total scoters to look at - Black at Park Point, Surf & 
White-winged at Two Harbors), Thayer's Gull at Knife River, Golden Eagle 
while driving on 35 in Duluth, and 115 Snow Buntings & four Gray Jays along 
CR 2.  Missed the Long-tailed Duck seen at Stoney Point during the day, and 
Red Crossbills (target bird) in general.  Also had "Kim Eckert & the gang" 
sighting just north of Two Harbors - some in fall, some in winter plumage.

Good birding to all.
