Had Yellow Rails and very plentiful Sharp-tailed Sparrows singing at two locations Saturday night after dark. Neal WMA (SE Norman County, two miles plus, east of Hwy 32 on Cty Rd. 39) and Waubun WMA (SW Mahnomen County, one mile west of Hwy 59 on Cty 113, and two miles south, then west on the dead end road.)
The Sharp-tailed Sparrows were literally there every time we got out of the car, no matter where it was along these locations. The Yellow Rails were a little harder to hear but we eventually heard at least one bird at each location. Take lots of mosquito repellant or head nets. Dennis and Barbara Martin [email protected]
