I refound both the Sora (2 or 3) and Virginia Rails(1) that Marcie
O'Connor had seen in Community Park. The park had the most birds I have
seen there this Spring. A Pectoral Sandpiper was at the pond along with
many Redwings (the females are back in numbers)/ Yellow-rumps, Song and
White Throats. There were three flycatchers, Phoebe, Least, and a silent
non-tail wager, either an Alder or Willow.
Community Park is on the SE corner of Cleveland and Roselawn, just north
of the St Paul campus of the U of M.
The rails and sandpiper were in the largest and southernmost pond, in
the cattails.
Tuesday evening I had a Wood Thrush in my yard, the first in over 20 years,
