Thursday I sighted my first Kingfisher of the year at the mouth of Minnehaha Creek on the Mississippi River. It entertained me by plunging into the river, coming up with a fish/minnow and flying to the lower branch of the tree and then after assumably consuming its catch flying back to the top branch of he tree 15 to 20 feet above the river from which it repeated the cycle two more times before flying across the river.
Later on the grounds of he MN Veterans Home , I saw a brown creeper. Today on my way to Afton State Park I passed a couple of snow melt flooded fields occupied by Scaup and Canada Geese.
