'Rare Regular' in Minnesota - Five or fewer records in Hennepin County for the Fall season

Chet Meyers reported a male Harlequin Duck on Lake Calhoon. This picture was taken as the bird swam near the NW corner of the lake. The bird was at first at a great distance, but it came in relatively close for the picture.
