(Posted by Jason Frank via moumn.org) After reading Josh Wallestad's post about the Blue Grosbeak range expansion, I decided to check out some of the northernmost potentialities in western Minnesota, namely Big Stone NWR. Departing my home in Gary, SD, I drove north along County Rd 15, which

The Western Wood-Pewee at Buffalo River State Park in Clay Co. continues: I was there between 5:40 and 8:15 AM this morning, and must have heard the bird 150 times. It's a good thing, too, because yesterday someone said to me, "Dude, stay away from the King Rail site because you're obviously b

WESTERN WOOD PEWEE briefly vocalized at Buffalo River State Park at approx. 1025 AM 4 times in about 3 mins, after a 30 minute wait. A Blue-gray Gnatcatcher vocalized once and was silently foraging at the west edge of the tract here as well, a bird I hadn't expected up here! On the way out, I

Thanks. Bird continues. Captued a few audio recordings around 1pm today as it vocalized a bit from the same area while confronting an eastern wood pewee. A yellow billed cuckoo was also flying around the same area and calling. Best, Justin Watts Hennepin On Jun 5, 2017 10:23 AM, "Randy Frederic
