This is the Minnesota Birding Report for Thursday, June 24th. The two Clay County ROCK WRENS at the Felton Prairie are apparently still in the area. Directions to the gravel pit where they are being seen are: From state highway 9, take Clay County Road 108 east to a T intersection. Go north and follow the road as it turns east, and after a quarter of a mile look for the rock pile labeled #6006 in the gravel pit. The YELLOW-BREASTED CHAT being reported from Blue Hill Trail at Sherburne NWA in Sherburne County was seen again on the 19th. It can be found about a or two minute walk past the trail head on the left. Take U.S. Highway 169 to county road 9 and turn west, passing the refuge headquarters. Blue Hill Trail is about another mile west on the right. Unusual was the BLACK-THROATED BLUE WARBLER reported on the 23rd from the same refuge. It was observed about a quarter mile past the first sharp right turn on the auto tour drive. And a TENNESSEE WARBLER was also reported here, in the oak grove by the first observation deck, about a quarter mile from the entrance to the auto tour drive.
