Check especially on the west side of the highway and from the bridge. They also found a PRAIRIE WARBLER in a farm grove along Nobles County Road 19, nine-tenths of a mile north of state highway 91. This is north of the town of Ellsworth in the southwestern part of the county. I have no recent word on either of these two observations, though it appears that the tern, at least, has departed. A WHITE-WING DOVE was recently seen at Nelson's Resort in Crane Lake, St Louis County. Dee Kuder, who reported the bird, says the dove has not been seen since the 3rd. Larry Weber reported a SCISSOR-TAILED FLYCATCHER on June 7th in Carlton County along Gillogly Road, one mile north of county road 4, about a mile and a half southeast of I-35. The bird has not been seen since. A SNOWY EGRET was at 40th Avenue West in Duluth on June 1st. On the 8th, Dale Yerger reported at least two YELLOW RAILS and one NELSON'S SHARP-TAILED SPARROW calling in the sedge meadows on the Hubbard County side of state highway 87 just east of state highway 64.
