Dale Yerger and I came across a Northern Mockingbird while driving to Snowshoe lake in eastern Cass County yesterday (5/29). The bird was at the junction of Washburn Lake rd (CR 48) and CR 155, approximately 5 miles west of state hwy 6.
After fishing we hopped into Aitkin county and picked up a vocal Yellow Rail, among many LeConte's Sparrows, on the east side of CR 5 north of Palisade. Point counts started this morning at Deep Portage. Northern Waterthrush was present, and perhaps it will stick around. Had a couple of late migrant Tennessee Warblers, and a few Alder Flycatchers.
