Hi,

I checked the Felton Prairie Thursday to see what birds were back 
and saw many Marbled Godwits and at least one (and possibly 
three) Chestnut-cololared Longspurs along the Longspur Road, 
plus a Loggerhead Shrike just up the hillslope from the house 
along Clay County 108.  Also, I found 59 Prairie Chickens at 5 
different leks, multiple Sandhill Cranes in small flocks throughout 
the prairie, a Common Loon at Flora Lake in Hitterdal, and a Great 
Egret at Hotsie Lake on Rt. 26.
