Hey folks It's been a while since bring on, bits and pieces of sightings come 
and go, including the adding of 5 species Saturday morning, to make my county 
list for May 160 species even.
A stop at Uihlein Marsh gave me Yellow-headed Blackbirds, Black Terns, 
Yellow-thr. Vireo, Eastern Wood-pewee and the inquiry bird, Marsh Wren, which 
segues to the following question.......where are they all?! As well as Sedge 
wrens, which I heard and saw NONE!!
What is the status of these 2 species.  It's really bad this year, when I 
normally hear them everywhere around this time in the marsh. Feedback on this 
would be great.
   Visits to Calumet County proved nicely recently. Had a walk to the closest 
woods this past Tuesday, when pishing resulted in House wren, chickadees, downy 
woodpecker, great crest flycatcher and the kicker, Canada warbler.  Heard a 
Pileated Woody yapping in the woods farther south.     A visit to a hotspot 
earlier this month, Abbey Park, was astoundingly dead aside from a few basic 
warblers and a Philadelphia Vireo, making my vireo species count to 6 for May. 
While pishing in the warblers a hummingbird joined in.    I also have stopped 
at the beach a few times by Menominee Park and have seen the same as Pete 
Fissel, nothing more nothing less.    Excellent finds up in Door County to you 
folks.     Best of luck elsewhere.
