Found the following when driving back from Fargo and through Rothsay NWR. 

Rough-winged Hawk (2) One on Hwy 52 just east (south?) of the Wilkin County
Line on Hwy 52 out of Barnesville. The other near 280th and 170th. 

Ring-necked Pheasant (1)

Greater Prairie Chicken (17) 

Saw the RNPh on 290th about a mile before the curve that eventually becomes
280th and before the cross road - 170th. As I stopped to look for at this
first of the year bird I noticed activity in the field farther out. The
Greater Prairie Chickens were in the field feeding. Had time to get my scope
out of the back seat and set up. I watched them for approximately 10
minutes. They flushed when I drove closer to them along the road.
