[mou] Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrows, Cass County

[SCOTT MEYER]

Four to Five Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrows were seen and heard from HWY 8
where it crosses the Boy River in Cass County on June 27 and 28th, 2006 at
approximately 9:00 PM.  One almost landed on me as it flew across HWY 8.

Eight Nelson's Sharp-tailed Sparrows were seen and heard singing at 5:00 PM
on June 29, 2006 also on the Boy River flood plain North of the Boy River on
the next road east and parallel of HWY 8.  This road is South of HWY 4, and
although is marked "Dead End", continues across the Boy River until it hits
CR 172.  These birds were observed and photographed from 5:00 PM until 9:00
PM.
