A female Barrow’s Goldeneye was spotted on Tuesday, January 28 and was seen on Wednesday and yesterday as well. This is at the Trumpeter Swan viewing area on the Mississippi River in Monticello. My phone is having difficulty copying and pasting the checklist, so if you can’t view it, reply to me off-channel. Here’s the report with a photo:
