On Tuesday morning, June 8th thanks to information provided by Steve Weston I was able to refind the Loggerhead Shrikes and Upland Sandpipers he originally found in Western Yellow Medicine County on Saturday, May 29th. I also found a pair of Blue Grosbeaks at the same location as the Upland Sandpipers. Directions in Yellow Medicine County: * Loggerhead Shrikes - Western Yellow Medicine County on the Fortier and Norman Township Line, approximately 2.8 miles south of MN Hwy 68, a pair of Loggerhead Shrikes were seen on a power line above a Russian Olive or Buffalo Berry Shrub (gray colored leaves) on the east side of 160th Street approximately two thirds of the way up the hill from where the road crosses a stream. * Upland Sandpipers - North Western Yellow Medicine County in Florida Township, 4 miles north of MN Hwy 68 on Co Rd 14 and 1 mile west on 260th Avenue or 1 mile south of Co Rd 4 on Co Rd 14 and 1 mile west on 260th avenue. The Upland Sandpipers were heard and seen in a pasture in the SE corner of the 260th Avenue & 140th Street intersection. * Blue Grosbeaks - Seen in the same area as the Upland Sandpipers - more specifically the pair was seen on the pasture fence and on the field road adjacent to the pasture approximately 50 yards south of the 140th Street & 260th Avenue intersection.
