Rob and I hiked the Mruephy-Hanrehan horse/pet trails on Monday, and then the wooded trails across the road from the horse-trail parking lot. Along the trails to the south of the horse camp, there were several Henslow's singing, one of them perched in prominent view. Bobolinks were also present, in the field that has a trail to Minnregs Lake. On the wooded trails, Hooded Warbler song could be heard near the entrance, just twice, and then just west of the gate that blocks entrance to Trail 16. Linda Whyte
