On our way out from a MRVAC bird hike at Lebanon Hills Park in Eagan, we found a Kentucky Warbler.
Directions: From Holland Lake parking lot (at Cliff and Lexington in Eagan) follow the trail from the pier west along the lake. The trail continues along the lake turning south. Stay on the trail going south through the first trail junction. The trail continues down and back up into a clearing. When you reach the clearing turn left (east) on the horse/ski trail and follow it to the first shelter. The warbler was seen in the tree tops near this shelter in the company of a couple of Magnolia Warblers and a Golden-winged Warbler and a Redstart. All were males. Besides the mini-warbler wave we found several singing E. Towhees, at least one Ruby-throated Hummer (male), a Great-crested Flycatcher, and a couple of Catbirds.
