Late this afternoon, Ron Erpelding and I stopped to check the
Mississippi River from South Side Park in Sauk Rapids near the Sauk
Rapids bridge. Looking downriver, Ron spotted a female Long-tailed Duck
with a flock of Common Goldeneyes. After a few minutes, the flock flew
downriver and out of sight. Hopefully they didn't go far. We're hoping
to look for the bird late tomorrow afternoon again.
