Directions: South from Stella to 2nd Concession, right on 2nd Concession and proceed West to McGinn where you turn south and go to 550 and watch the guy wires. The first half of the bird's loud song is very much like that of a Cardinal and can be heard from far off. I only post this message because the hay on the whole island is largely uncut and birding for regular grassland birds is wonderful. The hay must be cut soon, though, and it will be like the Ferndale Dickcissels all over again. Almost all of Northumberland County, for example, is already cut. If one needs this bird, one should probably go soon. . Cheers, richard
