[JGIOCOMO@xxxxxxx]

We went to visit the field where Jay Desgrosellier and Chris Sloan reported 
Henslow's Sparrow in Land-Between-the-Lakes (a vaction from the fields in Fort 
Campbell during the rain).  The Henslow's Sparrows were still there (we 
counted 6 singing males, and one bird was carrying food), but the surprise came 
when 
a male BOBOLINK flushed up after listening a little while.  This was 
surprizing because ! saw my last Bobolink at Fort Campbell on the 28th of May, 
and I 
have been watching for them everyday since then.
We also had Green Heron, Great Blue Heron, Red-winged Blackbird, Prairie 
Warbler, and Yellow-breasted Chat.  

The field was just after mile marker 4 coming in from the south entrance of 
the park on the right side.  It looks like they might be getting ready to mow 
the field soon.
