I haven't seen this bird on the Minneapolis city lakes lately, and given
that others have seen it at Purgatory Creek in Eden Prairie, I suspect
it is roosting on Lake Minnetonka -- at least some days.

This afternoon from 3:30 until 4:15 pm I enjoyed watching a Lesser
Black-backed Gull on the west end of Black Dog Lake in Burnsville,
Dakota County in the chilly sunshine with a hundred or so Ring-billed
and Herring Gulls.
