also at the first large main parking lot across from the public =
restrooms (closed this time of year).

Thayer's Gull on January 1 and 3rd.  Both gulls were first cycle =
plumage.  Both sightings were at Canal.  On January 3rd I counted 200 =
gulls sitting on the breakwalls. I met a birder who was out on her =
afternoon walk down in Canal Park and she informed me that she saw the =
two Harlequin Ducks a week ago in the bay near the south pier hotel.  =
It's really not clear if the Harlequin Ducks are gone as there is still =
some open water scattered all over the Duluth harbor.

On January 3rd I had some White-winged Crossbills feeding spruce cones =
at St. Elizabeth Catholic Church in Gary-New Duluth.=20
