16 | 75:41 | 2002-04-20 | Coon Rapids Dam Regional Park | Hennepin | (record #2002-49; vote 5–2 on first individual; vote 0–7, Not The observer who originally found the bird(s) provided an adequate description of a singing male. A second individual present at the time was thought to have been a female Prairie Warbler, but both the observation and the description were too brief, and this second bird was not accepted. Other observers also reported seeing a Prairie Warbler at this same location through at least 25 April, but none of these reports could be accepted since none was accompanied by adequate documentation. | Accepted | |||

Independently prepared documentation from multiple observers, especially if accompanied by contemporaneous field notes, greatly enhances the validity of sight records. | Accepted | |||

Comparison of sonograms with a Prairie Warbler also recorded at this same location on 7 June 2015 indicates the bird is almost certainly different from the 2015 male, taking into consideration pronounced differences in the songs. | Accepted | |||

Both were described as singing their “diagnostic slightly buzzy ascending series of notes.” The species may have persisted until 17 June 2020 as evidenced by a couple of other reports in proximity to this location. | Accepted | ||

A second bird may also have been present here; but the documentation was insufficient for MOURC to accept more than one bird. Interestingly, a Prairie Warbler was documented very near this location in May and June 2019. | Accepted | ||
