[mou] St Louis Co Lk Superior - H Grebes, otter - Mockingbird

[Frank Berdan]

Good numbers of Horned Grebes were noted on Lake
Superior this morning, as well as a single river
otter, off the 9400 block of North Shore Scenic Drive.

A survey between McQuade and Lester River (binoculars
only, bicycle-based) tallied:
2 Canada Geese
3 Mallard
8 Bufflehead
3 Common Mergansers
8 Red-breasted Mergansers
14 Common Loons
249 Horned Grebes
5 Red-necked Grebes

And the Mockingbird posted by Dave Grosshuesch was
refound at 910 a.m.  Good BGBY bird.  Thanks, Dave.
