I went to Sherburne NWR to look for the Acadian Flycatcher this morning.
Before I got there, I found another Henslow's Sparrow on the refuge.  It
was heard (not seen) on the south side of CR9 about 0.2 miles east of
the Blue Hill trail parking lot.  There was also an Orchard Oriole 0.1
mile further east of the Henslow's.
 
After re-finding the Acadian, I went to Kunkel WMA in Mille Lacs County
to see what I could find.  I turned off of Hwy 95 opposite CR5, drove in
to the parking lot, then walked what must be nearly 2 miles to the spot
where I heard another Henslow's.  At that point I also discovered there
is a south access that didn't show in my atlas.  
 
So to save yourself some walking, use these directions:  From Sherburne
CR5, go east on CR3 about 4 miles, then turn left onto 160th St NW and
follow it in to the gate.  Walk in and listen for it in the grassy area
opposite the Kunkel WMA sign (to the right/east of the road).  I
actually did not hear it from the road, but could hear it when I walked
in to confirm a Grasshopper Sparrow I had heard.  There is a beat up "No
Motorized Vehicle" sign at the point where I walked in.
