Hello MN birders, I am a birder from CT and I'm going to be doing a birding cross-country road trip this summer, and I'll be passing through MN in late July.
I am highly interested in seeing the following species, and I'm wondering if anybody can provide me with further specifics on locations for any of these at that time of year. I know many can be found at Sax-Zim Bog, but I am unfamiliar with where to look at that location. Greater Prairie-Chicken: I've seen on ebird that Felton Prairie is good, but any specifics on finding this species in summer would be great Sharp-tailed Grouse: at Sax-Zim Bog? If so, where? Yellow Rail: I've seen that McGregor marsh is a good spot, but are there certain trails / areas? LeConte's Sparrow: at Sax-Zim Bog? If so, where? Great Gray Owl: Are these at Sax-Zim bog year-round, and if so, does anyone have any tips on locating them / might be willing to show me around? Any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
