[mou] Good Duluth Birds

[Mike Hendrickson]

Morgan Park Mud Flats:
-Wilson Phalarope
-Marbled Godwit

Herding Island:
-14 Willets
-Yellow-headed Blackbird 

Other Birds:
-Caspian Terns 
-Common Terns
-hundreds of Red-necked Grebes & Horned Grebes all along Park Pt. out in the Lake.
-Large rafts of Lesser Scaup all over the St. Louis River.
-raft of Greater Scaup at the Airport on Park Point.
-Rose-breasted Grosbeak along the RR tracks in Morgan Park.

*The St. Louis River is several feet below normal and because of that the mudflats at Morgan Park are quite extensive as well as the sand bars on the north and south side of Herding Island. Another place worth checking is the large mudflats at the mouth of the Miller Creek on the eastern wide of the WLSSD Recycling Area.

* I need 4-5 more birders to come along with us on the LL Smith to bird Lake Superior on May 19th. Right now the lake is loaded with birds and hopefully it will remain this way for another week!
