[mou-net] Harlequin and Long-tailed Ducks @ Prescott 1/10
Between 2:30-3:30 this afternoon, January 10, I saw both the Harlequin Duck and the Long-tailed Duck from Prescott, WI, near the RR bridge. Both ducks were in Washington County waters. I did not search long for the Barrow's Goldeneye and did not find it from two different spots. I also stopped at the Lock Dam in Hastings and found a Belted Kingfisher and a few duck species.

[mou-net] Common Goldeneye X Hooded Merganser hybrid- Duluth
This afternoon I watched a presumed hybrid Common Goldeneye X Hooded Merganser with the large flock of Common Goldeneyes wintering at Canal Park. I took a few photos that can be seen at www.pbase.com/karlbardon I have seen this hybrid combination five times previously in Minnesota, including one I photographed along the Mississippii River between Prescott, WI and Hastings, MN on 24 December 2007, so these photos are included for comparison to the Duluth bird. Also present at Canal Park were a male Greater Scaup (which has been wintering with the goldeneyes) and four Great Black-backed Gulls.
