[mou] Harlequin Duck, Red-throated Loons at Park Point, Duluth

[Peder Svingen]

Sunday (10/26) Mike Hendrickson and I observed the following birds of  
interest on Lake Superior:
Female/immature Harlequin Duck between 22nd Street and 31st Street  
(Lafayette Square) on Park Point;
Two adult Red-throated Loons between the Recreation Area and Sky  
Harbor Airport;
Adult Thayer's Gull on Minnesota side of the Superior Entry (another  
adult was at the Superior Landfill).

Friday (10/24) while it was raining, I found two Pacific Loons and one  
juvenile Red-throated Loon on Lake Superior between the Recreation  
Area and Sky Harbor Airport, and another juvenile Red-throated at  
Lafayette Square. These four loons could not be refound the next  
morning. Thus, at least four different Red-throated Loons have been  
recently seen in Duluth.
