Yes, visiting Wyalusing should be worthwhile the first week in July. The
Atlas of the Breeding Birds of Wisconsin has breeding phenology graphs --for
the Kentucky Warbler, 5 of the 8 observations of feeding young were in July.
Similar results for Prothonotary Warbler, Cerulean Warbler, and Acadian
Flycatcher, and now you can include details like that in the ebird
observations! Also some of the breeding bird surveys for this area allow
surveys to continue into the first week of July. Later in July, not so much
bird song, but the fledged young are out there feeding. For grassland
birds, there are some large ridge top areas in the Millville Unit of the
Lower Wisconsin State Riverway, off County C.

Subject: [wisb] Visiting Grant County in July
I'm visiting relatives in the Fennimore/Lancaster area the 1st week of July
for just 3 or 4 days. I was hoping some folks from this email list could
pass on some helpful hints to maximize the little amount of time I'll have.
Would Wyalusing in July be worth the while ? I live in the Seattle area so
summertime is not the best birding. I'm hoping WI might be different. Spent
all my summers on my Grandparents farm but was clueless about birds then
so I starting from scratch on what's there. Thanks for your help. If any
of you get out this way I'd be more than happy to take you birding.
We have a Snowy Owl irruption out our way this year too.
