Spent the afternoon at Sherburne NWR. Our group was treated to some
wonderful breading birds, with a pair of Least Bitterns being the highlight for me.
Here are some of my favorite sightings.
@ Least Bittern - 2 observed at the Big Blue Stem Pool and one heard from the
parking area that has interpretive signs about draw downs.
@ Ruffed Grouse - heard along Blue Hill Trail
@ Sandhill Crane
@ Golden-winged Warbler - Heard along Blue Hill trail
@ Grasshopper Sparrow - Near entrance to the wildlife drive and at the
parking area for the Blue Hill trail
@ Lark Sparrow - several locations along the wildlife drive
