Roving Interpreter, Jill Beim, found a pair of Henslow's sparrows on the Prairie's Edge Wildlife Drive early this morning. They were near the beginning of the drive, across the road from the information kiosks and parking area (and restroom). She got a great shot of one of the birds, which you can see on the Sherburne Refuge Fans Facebook page, as well as the one for Minnesota Birding, and mine too! Thanks for sharing, Jill!
There have been up to four adult common gallinules seen this year, and following a note left by Paul Johnson, others have been able to see a least bittern along the edge of Schoolhouse Pool, across the road from Nelson Pool, also on the Wildlife Drive.
