I stopped by Afton State Park this morning (6:30) to look for the Chat which has been recently mentioned on ebird but not yet on MOU.
He was present, singing loudly and flopping about. Same area as last year: enter from the north, take the first main path to the right/west, follow the curve around, past the bench and into the next open space. He was in the flowering tree near the trail when I arrived. Also present were Tennessee and Blue-winged Warblers and what seemed like two dozen Henslow's Sparrows - only one of which was brazen enough to sit atop a short, scraggly tree and sing. Have fun! -rick, mpls ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
