Seeing the eagles on their nest on Long Meadow Lake Sunday with Craig Mandel's group reminded me to check the South Minneapolis nest. Bald eagles built a nest last year just west of the 5-8 Club. One was sitting in the nest about 2:30 p.m. today. I didn't see the mate nearby in the few minutes that I was there. Directions: From Portland Avenue take 58th Street east to the 1600 block. The nest is on the south side of the street about 100 yards west of the 5-8 Club.
Also, mallards were tipping and a ring-billed gull caught a small fish for lunch on the small amount of open water on Diamond Lake today. Good birding to all...
