I found a Blue Grosbeak today around 10:30 a.m. in Ramsey along Bunker Lake Blvd (Co Rd 116) west of the intersection with Armstrong Blvd. It stayed in the trees on the south side of the road, and it moved around quite a bit. I first found it about a half-mile west of the intersection where there is a dense grove of trees with some evergreens. But the bird moved to the east, and when I left it was about 3/10 of a mile west of Armstrong. It sang the entire time I was there - about 15 to 20 minutes.
There are "no parking" signs all along this road, but there are several spots where you can pull off from the road and maybe park. It may not be proper to use them, but the road is not heavily used. There is a paved sidewalk on the north side of the road which I used to walk along to listen/look for birds.
