Checked out shorebird locations in Dakota County in the last couple of days. All of the shorebirds found were on Sunday. Apparantly the shorebirds realize that I rarely can bird during the week, other than fast looks usually without slowing down. Revisiting most of the locations on Monday, I

I am s lousy at IDing birds by song! Frustrating as can be as the woods this time of year are so chock full of the cacophony of our feathered compadres. I have envied those who can simply listen and say Hooded Warber! Of course I nod agreeingly while in my head thinking If you say

[mou] migrants late, and early

I just saw a Canada Warbler on the south side of Normandale Lake in Bloomington (around noon on 13 May), which is earlier than I usually see them. And there are still lots of Yellow-rumps around, where adult males, at least, are usually scarce by now. Maybe the lack of insects is stalling them?
