Henslow's Sparrow, Sherburne Wildlife Refuge, Auto Tour, Prairie Trail, 
about 50 feet in, top of the shorter brown grasses.

10 species of sparrows on a quick jaunt through today on the Auto Tour - 
more detailed checking would probably have yielded 13-14 species, since 
missed Harris', White-crowned (two normal migrants around this date) and 
Savannah, among others.  Surprised earlier this week by a late Grasshopper 
Sparrow.

Eastern Meadowlarks were singing throughout the drive, which sounds funky 
after month plus of silence.

Good birding to all!
