This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday, June 24th.

The two Clay County ROCK WRENS at the Felton Prairie are apparently 
still in the area. Directions to the gravel pit where they are being 
seen are: From state highway 9, take Clay County Road 108 east to a T 
intersection. Go north and follow the road as it turns east, and 
after a quarter of a mile look for the rock pile labeled #6006 in the 
gravel pit.

The YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT being reported from Blue Hill Trail at 
Sherburne NWA in Sherburne County was seen again on the 19th. It can 
be found about a or two minute walk past the trail head on the left. 
Take U.S. Highway 169 to county road 9 and turn west, passing the 
refuge headquarters. Blue Hill Trail is about another mile west on 
the right.

Unusual was the BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER reported on the 23rd from 
the same refuge. It was observed about a quarter mile past the first 
sharp right turn on the auto tour drive. And a TENNESSEE WARBLER was 
also reported here, in the oak grove by the first observation deck, 
about a quarter mile from the entrance to the auto tour drive.

This state-wide birding report is brought to you and financially 
supported by the Minnesota Ornithologists' Union (MOU). The MOU is 
Minnesota's oldest and largest bird club.

The report is composed from observations generously submitted by MOU 
members and other birders throughout the state. You can support this 
weekly update by submitting your bird reports to Anthony Hertzel at 
axhertzel@sihope.com or by calling the hotline directly at 
763-780-8890 and leaving a detailed message.

MOU members receive this report directly on MOU-net, the club's free 
e-mail listservice, which is available to anyone interested. For 
information contact David Cahlander at <david@cahlander.com>.

MOU members receive the organization's quarterly journal "The Loon" 
and the bimonthly magazine, "Minnesota Birding". For membership 
information, send an e-mail message to our membership secretary at 
moumembers@yahoo.com.

In cooperation with the Minnesota Office of Tourism, highlights of 
this hotline can be now heard at a toll free number which is 
available to callers outside the Twin Cities area. The number is 
1-800-657-3700.

The MOU is pleased to offer this service. Thank you, and good birding.

The next scheduled update of this tape is Thursday, July 1st.
