Today from about 11:00 to 12:15 there was a female Long-tailed Duck along the Mississippi River just north of St. Cloud. Initially it was about 350 yards NW of the 9th Ave. bridge, but eventually it moved farther NW to the Sauk River mouth. As far as I could tell, it was always in Stearns County, right along the ice edge on the river's Stearns County side.
Views can be obtained from Heims Mill Canoe Access, situated on the north side of the Sauk River mouth, and from directly under the 9th Avenue bridge on the Sauk Rapids side of the Mississippi.
