For those many, many birders who will be visiting Salt Lake this weekend:
Please be aware that the viewing platform on the Minnesota side is pretty rough shape.
I'm requesting that groups and caravans of birders avoid using it this weekend.
With extremely high water and no mudflats on that side of the lake, there aren't any decent viewing opportunities there right now anyway.
Currently, the best viewing areas are the peninsula across from Zoar Church on the South Dakota side (but once you step out onto the peninsula, you're technically back in Minnesota) and at the east corner of the lake from the roadside.
Thank you!
