It is not just in NE Minnesota. I haven't seen this many Dickcisells in SW MN (Lac qui Parle, Yellow Medicine Counties) since 2011.
Driving around here I am finding one male singing every half mile or so, in Mound Spring SNA/WMA, Florida Creek WMA, Sioux Nation WMA, Florida Creek WMA, and Prairie Marsh Farm in Lac qui Parle Co.
