An apparent Ancient Murrelet was reported to me this morning from the Mississippi River “a few miles north of New Albin, IA”. This was later clarified to be "somewhere south of Reno, MN along the canoe trail that starts at Reno and goes south to New Albin". The linear distance between these two towns is less than 7 miles, so it is certainly possible that this bird eventually will show up in Iowa, possibly in the New Albin Landing area at the end of Army Road.
