And on way to Sherburne, checked for Western Kingbirds in Ramsey, Mn. Found a pair where they were last year, Between Ramsey Blvd.-CR 56 and Armstong Blvd.-CR 83 on US Hwy 10, southside of highway. 5-26-12
Heading North on US Hwy 10 go past Ramsey Blvd -CR 56. Just past "Cor" sign is a blue sign for future Ramsey Northstar Train station. I parked in this driveway and looked directly across highway. The Western Kingbirds were in the two trees standing alone. There is a bar closed down on south side of highway with large empty parking lot. Just north of that place are paved walking paths around a couple small ponds. Last year I parked there and saw Western Kingbirds up close hunting. Also saw orchard orioles and grasshopper sparrows there last year. Watch telephone lines for any bird hawking bugs with yellow. Good Luck.
