These birds are abundant from Hastings all the way to the Iowa border.

And Trumpeter Swans can be seen at Mississippi Drive Park in Monticello. At the time of this report, there were 1,200 swans, with numbers to potentially increase to 1,500.

The following is a list of recent, significant sightings:

An Ivory gull was seen in Duluth on Jan. 7, but it departed in the afternoon and has not been seen since. The bird had been roosting on the ice behind the Canal Park Inn.
