| 15 | 76:39 | 2003-04-22 | Little Rock Lake | Benton | (record #2003-46, vote 7–0). Although this species is Regular in Minnesota on Lake Superior, there are very few documented records elsewhere in the state, where it is very rare. | Accepted | |||

| 17 | 76:152 | 2004-04-29 | Lebanon Hills Regional Park | Dakota | (recirculated record #2004-040, first vote 4–3, second vote 6–1). This small loon was seen only in flight for a relatively brief period of time by an experienced observer, who noted the bird's tendency to repeatedly move its head up and down, and back and forth. There were lingering concerns that a pale-looking, basic-plumaged Common Loon could not be ruled out under these circumstances. | Accepted | |||

Injured bird found in driveway, brought to Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, Roseville; photographed. Successfully rehabilitated and released the following month in the Atlantic near other wintering Red-throated Loons (fide AXH). This remarkable occurrence may have been a consequence of near-record ice cover on the Great Lakes in late winter.
