The Old Cedar Avenue bridge, now closed for safety reasons, was for years a wonderful birding location. It could be again. Almost enough money has been raised to rebuild the bridge, which spans the Minnesota River. A rally to push for the final dollars needed will be held at the bridge Tuesday, Aug. 19, at 9 a.m. The governor plans to be there, along with other elected officials. A good-sized crowd of enthusiastic birders will be helpful. The bridge, located in Bloomington, is at the end of Old Cedar Avenue, reached from Old Shakopee Road. Exit 35W at 90th St. and go east.Â
