St Paul Audubon Report for Warbler Weekend. May 7-9. Villa Maria, Frontenac, Goodhue County. We found 122 species including 18 warbler species (with several warblers represented by only one bird! ) Weather was cold, rainy, sleety, until Sunday morning. Birds were generally thin and quiet until Sunday. Highlights were a Trumpeter Swan on the headwaters of Wells Creek on Saturday, a pair of Tufted Titmice on the Villa property, one singing Henslow's Sparrow on territory occupied last year in Frontenac State Park, and one Cerulean Warbler at Hok-si-la Park in Lake City, and one Prothonotary Warbler at Frontenac State Park. 5 Dunlin were also sighted on Sand Point for only the 5th time in 39 years. It was a wonderful, hardy group of 88 birders who almost never complained about the weather!! Bill Stjern
