I spent yesterday touring around looking for Dickcissels in various =
counties and found them in 8. This brings my total for the year to 27 =
counties. If anyone wants directions to any of these I'd be happy to =
provide them.
The counties are all listed on the MOU site under Summer Seasonal =
Reports.
The probable LeConte's Sparrow was calling from suitable habitat along =
the west side of Co. Rd. 53 in the far northern edge of Chisago County. =
You can get there from I-35 by taking the Rush City exit and traveling =
west on Co. Rd. 1 a short distance to Co. Rd. 53. The bird was about =
3/10ths of a mile south of the county line. It sounded different than a =
Grasshopper Sparrow, but I never was able to see the bird to verify it. =
I have the recording on a CD in my car and it was just like the =
recording. =20
