Antonio and I birded Hisle Park this morning. No Henslow's sparrows, but
we did have a *black*-billed cuckoo among other more common birds. I sure
hope the town comes through with its prairie restoration proposal there.

It seems I'm engaging in an annual summer search for a Henslow's sparrow.
My success has been pretty poor thus far this season. No sparrows on the
Orange trail of Raven Run back at the end of April (?too early). No
Henslow's at Camp Nelson on the ASK walk earlier this month. Last week I
couldn't find any of the birds on the West lot trail at Shaker Village
(where it's been reported in the past). I'm running out of options,
certainly in Fayette county. I was going to try Hisle Park (i.e. Briar Hill
Park) on the north side of town this week (Thursday or Friday maybe).
Anyone want to join me? Has anyone had any better success with finding
Henslow's?
