Greetings, Observed a singing Yellow-billed Cuckoo in my back yard in Big Lake=20 Township, Sherburne County this morning.
My wife JoAnn and I birded the wildlife drive in Sherburne National=20 Wildlife Refuge Wednesday morning with Nathan and Lynda Benkofske. In=20 addition to the usuals, we observed an Orchard Oriole and a Henslow=92s=20= Sparrow. The oriole was seen in some small aspens along the road=20 between the first observation deck and where the end of the drive joins=20= the road in. It flew to a nearby burr oak and broke into song. The=20 sparrow was heard =93tslicking=94 and observed just before the first = right=20 turn in the drive--out beyond the =93Vehicles Prohibited=94 sign.
