Peder Svingen called to report a Gyrfalcon perched on the rocks on the Minnesota side of the Superior Entry at about 4:00 pm. Also seen on the Minnesota side was an adult Lesser Black-backed Gull. A juvenile Parasitic Jaeger was seen in Wisconsin waters. All of these observations were made from the north end of Wisconsin Point by Peder and a group of North Dakota birders.
Peder also had a second-hand report of a Prairie Falcon observed by a reliable observer just east of Duluth this morning. As of early afternoon it had not been seen at Hawk Ridge. Also seen in Duluth earlier today was a Black Scoter on the bay side of the Sky Harbor Airport, and two Boreal Chickadees and three Sandhill Cranes at the Hawk Ridge main overlook. Jim Lind
