Not the NE here, but in the NW I've already found a number of them in Polk County. We had a lot last year so I'm interested to see how this summer compares. I didn't really expect to see them this year.

I just returned from a mined area 8 miles north of Hoyt Lakes, now a restored grassland, and lost track of the number of singing males when I got to 10. They were at this site in the 2012 irruption, but not in these numbers. ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html ---- Join or Leave mou-net: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=mou-net Archives: http://lists.umn.edu/archives/mou-net.html
