Birded Kathio State Park, short portion of the western Mille Lacs lakefront,
and Kunkel WMA yesterday; today stopped at Blue Hill Trail in Sherburne NWR
briefly.
A Yellow-bellied Flycatcher was the highlight yesterday, front edge of Touch
the Earth trail in Kathio (near the Interpretive Center). Numerous Hermit
Thrushes were singing. Did not hear or see Connecticuts on the trail (which
runs through a bog), however, unlike last year.
The Olive-sided Flycatcher was singing on Blue Hill Trail this morning, as
was a Mourning Warbler. The Cerulean might have been singing in the
distance, never could resolve the song to my satisfaction (and this one does
sing interesting variants).
10 warblers singing over last two days. Blue-winged and Golden-winged
quiet, however. It's July!
