Several Dickcissels are being seen and heard near the entrance to
Glendalough State Park, which is located just north and east of the town of
Battle Lake in central Otter Tail County.  The birds were actively singing
just west of the entrance sign along CR 16 and in the restored prairie
across the road from the entrance.

Other notables seen in the last couple of days in the park are both Black
and Yellow-billed Cuckoos.

note:  we have been UNsuccessful in multiple tries in re-locating the
Henslow's Sparrow originally spotted a couple of days ago by Carole and
Clemens Brysky.  Carole is leading a birdwalk at the park on Saturday
morning beginning at 7:00 am.; hopefully, the sparrow will put in an
appearance for that!
