Hey all- Finally got back to MN to do a little birding in Douglas Co, north of Alexandria near Miltona. Our best birds were at least two singing Le Conte's Sparrows north of Lake Irene, on NW Lake Irene Rd. We've had them as migrants once or twice in fall, but it never had occurred to me that they might breed in the county. Also present here were the expected contingent of grassland birds, like Sedge Wren, Bobolink and Dickcissels. If anyone wants more precise directions, just email.
Good birding, Jesse -- Jesse Ellis Post-doctoral Researcher Dept. of Zoology University of Wisconsin - Madison Madison, Dane Co, WI ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
