On April 19th I went to Coon Rapids Dam for an evening/sunset walk. I mostly hung out on the little island in the Middle of the river where I saw a Pileated Woodpecker and some Yellow-rumped Warblers :) Eventually I walked across the dam to the Brooklyn Park side where I found they had constructed a birder hangout spot since last time I had been there. It has benches with cardboard cutouts of people sitting on them so that birds get used to "people" being there.

It was a nice sunset walk but as I got back to my car I realized I didn't have my keys and the reason I didn't have my keys is that I didn't have my backpack! Apparently I had set it down at the birding spot and forgot to grab it again so I ran back across the dam and luckily birding is so unpopular that my backpack was still there! It had my purse in it with my ID and debit card, etc which would have been a major hassle to lose so I'm glad that didn't happen. :)
