7/5/13 While listening to the Yellow Rails, the other night. I thought there were some distant singing Nelson's Sparrows. But with all the traffic even after midnight that night. They were difficult to confirm. So on Thursday morning, I went back out and between 8:00 and 8:20 am. There were two singing Nelson's Sparrow, about .3 miles North of the Soo Line Trail, or about a mile South of Highway 210 along Highway 65. A third bird was also observed at this location. The birds were on the West side of the road. Aitkin County Nelson's Sparrow - 7/4 - 8:00 - 8:20 am - Highway 65, 1 mile South of 210.
