To anyone thinking about coming up to the Twin Ports (Duluth/Superior) in
the near future...
This afternoon I had my first-of-the-fall Parasitic Jaeger, while walking
along sandy Dune Bridge area of Park Point (Duluth, MN). This bird is a
light morph adult. In addition to this jaeger adding a huge burst of
excitement to the afternoon, there was also a Bonaparte's Gull flying by, a
Semipalmated Sandpiper that hung out with me for almost twenty straight
minutes in one spot, and four distant peeps that flew by, unidentified.
 Enjoy the pics!

I hope to get out to Wisconsin Point soon! Good birding,
