This morning I birded mostly Nicolett County and a little bit of Le Sueur County.
Notables in Nicolett: -Dickcissels plentiful on any of the county roads west of St. Peter -Prothonotary Warbler at the Seven Mile Creek Boat Launch- walk the trails north of the parking lot back to the swampy area -Least Bittern calling at the public access on the south side of Swan Lake In Le Sueur County I drove by Kasota Prairie SNA. At the eastern end of the prairie I found two singing Henslow's Sparrows. They could be easily heard from the roadside. Had I walked the prairie, I most likely would have found more. Also in the area were many Dickcissels, Grasshopper Sparrows, and Orchard Orioles. Henslow's Sparrows: Where will they be found next? Bob Dunlap, Carver County
