While surveying a priority atlas block near Dorset in southern Hubbard County on May 22, I found a pair of lark sparrows on private open farmland. They were still present today. Usually just the male (singing) is present, suggesting that this is a nesting pair and the female is incubating. If confirmed, this may be a county nesting record. I would be interested in other birders' observations of possible nesting lark sparrows, particularly in Hubbard or nearby counties.
