I had a look at the 2 Western Kingbirds reported by Erika Sitz on 4 Jul=
y in
Sherburne County (on Sherburne CR14, just south of the interchange with=
 US
Hwy 10).  They were still present at noon today (14 July 2006) -- this =
time
on the utility poles near the south end of the row of trees running sou=
th
from the cemetery.

The two adults were feeding dragonflies to 3 begging, fledged young (fa=
irly
well-developed, but still growing rectrices).  So that would be a confi=
rmed
breeding record for Western Kingbird, Big Lake Township, Sherburne Coun=
ty.
