This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday May 1st, 2014.

I have a report of a possible WHITE IBIS seen in Roseau County today. It was in the southwest corner of the Norland Impoundment. From the intersection of state highways 310 and 11 in Roseau, go east on highway 11 for five miles to 440th Avenue North. Turn north and go four miles, then turn east and go another mile to the dead end.

Also on the 1st Peder Svingen reported 2,588 HORNED GREBES and 3,955 RED-NECKED GREBES in flocks of various sizes on Lake Superior near Lakewood Road in east Duluth.

On April 30th, Roger Schroeder reported a first Murray County record GLAUCOUS GULL at the northern end of Lake Sarah. The location was the junction of 221st Street and Murray County Road 30.

I also have reports of BROAD-WINGED HAWK, BLACK TERN, LEAST FLYCATCHER, CANADA WARBLER, PALM WARBLER, ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK, ORCHARD ORIOLE, and BALTIMORE ORIOLE.
