At 12:00pm today, Lake Nokomis BV still present and singing in same location.   Great views!  However, as we were leaving, bird did move to other side of path and was quieter.

The Bell's vireo was singing from the same location 
at 11 a.m. today, Monday.  This was the best look I have ever had at a 
singing Bell's: Thanks for posting it, Diana.

This morning at 7:45 I heard and saw a Bell's vireo at Lake  Nokomis, Mpls. 

The bird was singing constantly from the willows and cottonwoods at the  southwest side of the Lake Nokomis lagoon (west of Cedar Ave. bridge). Taking  the path around the lagoon, it was in the area behind the very large  cottonwood stump just along the path. It sang constantly for nearly half an  hour.

I remember someone posting a Bell's vireo in the same location last year  or the year before. Thanks to whoever posted that original sighting.

I also saw a common loon on L. Nokomis, surprising for June, and a  green heron seems to hang out at the storm grate in the reeds just north of  the Bell's vireo area, on the left side of the path heading north.
