Welcome to the North Dakota Rare Bird Alert compiled by the North Dakota Birding Society and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. This report was prepared on Tuesday, July 31.

Shorebirds and a hummer top our report this week.

Nine members of the Bismarck-Mandan Bird Club counted 64 species during a July 28 field trip to Long Lake National Wildlife Refuge. Highlights included about 30 BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPERS in a field east of refuge headquarters. Club members also turned up two SNOWY EGRETS, BURROWING OWLS, DICKCISSEL, and a Nelson’s SHARP-TAILED SPARROW. Corey Ellingson reported a fair number of shorebirds overall at the refuge, but said many of them were too far out for good viewing. For more information, contact him at tcelllingson@juno.com.

Ron Martin went out on his own in McHenry County on July 28 and 29. Among his highlights: eight PIPING PLOVERS including juvenile birds plus a CHESTNUT-COLLARED LONGSPUR nest with young, and 14 SPRAGUE’S PIPITS at Smokey Lake; BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPER on a small wetland east of Bantry; four singing ALDER FLYCATCHERS at J. Clark Salyer National Wildlife Refuge; nine singing LECONTE’S SPARROWS; a first-summer COMMON LOON at Round Lake; 365 AMERICAN AVOCETS at Connia Slough between Balfour and Bergen; six RUDDY TURNSTONES at Lake Lemer; 10 more SPRAGUE’S PIPITS east of Velva and at Lake Lemer, plus two juvenile BAIRD’S SPARROWS on a gravel road east of Velva, which marked Ron’s first-ever road sighting of the species. On July 27, Ron visited the Minot sewage lagoons. He discovered two BUFF-BREASTED SANDPIPERS, four singing Nelson’s SHARP-TAILED SPARROWS, and a hybrid LAZULI BUNTING X INDIGO BUNTING. Ron notes that both species are rare in the Minot area, and many of those seen are hybrids. For details, contact him at jrmartin@srt.com.

How often do two species of hummers arrive on the same day? That’s what happened to Diane Bingeman of Beach, when her first RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRD showed up on the evening of July 25 and was joined by a RUFOUS HUMMINGBIRD. Diane says both birds apparently moved on within a day or two. Call her at 701-872-3256.

If it’s shorebirds you want to see, Kay Buri suggests a slough at mileposts 131 and 132 along Highway 52 between Bergen and Balfour. She says the waters are receding, providing good habitat for thousands of shorebirds. Kay adds that the Wannakumbak OWLS site at milepost 131 should also be good. Contact her at kayaktheprairie@srt.com.

Pat Beauzay saw a single RUDDY TURNSTONE in alternate plumage at Kellys Slough National Wildlife Refuge near Grand Forks on July 25. He reported several other common shorebird species present in the area. Contact Pat at 701-231-9491.

Linda Gregg was surprised to find an EASTERN KINGBIRD at the jelly feeders she has at Horace on July 29. She is starting to see RED-BREASTED NUTHATCHES again and the PILEATED WOODPECKERS have returned after a two-month absence. You can reach Linda at lgregg@wah.midco.net.

Bernice Houser’s yard near New Town attracted quite a few juvenile birds between July 14 and 24. They included HOUSE FINCH, HAIRY WOODPECKER, BROWN THRASHER, CLAY-COLORED SPARROW, BLACK-CAPPED CHICKADEE, YELLOW WARBLER, HOUSE WREN, RING-NECKED PHEASANT, LAZULI BUNTING, CHIPPING SPARROW, and BROWN-HEADED COWBIRD. Contact Bernice at sanishnd@hotmail.com.

That concludes this report from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the North Dakota Birding Society. This report is normally updated each Tuesday. The Fish and Wildlife Service operates 62 National Wildlife Refuges and more than 1,100 Waterfowl Production Areas in North Dakota...offering some of the best birding opportunities in the state.

This week...a long search reaches a successful conclusion, and more sightings of a supposedly rare shorebird.

When Dave Lambeth saw a LECONTE’S SPARROW with food in its bill west of Grand Forks on July 23, he saw an opportunity to find the bird’s nest and satisfy a desire he had for years. He watched the bird land in a clump of grass, and Dave walked right to the nest. Also that day, he reported Nelson’s SHARP-TAILED SPARROW, SWAMP SPARROW, SEDGE WREN, and MARSH WREN all quite vocal in the Kellys Slough National Wildlife Refuge area, where he saw young SORAS and VIRGINIA RAILS.

Corey Ellingson easily relocated a SNOWY PLOVER first seen on July 15 by Sherry and Gary Leslie in the Lake Williams area of eastern McLean County. After his July 17 sighting, Corey believes there could be a nest with a pair present.

Summing up all the recent sightings of the species, Corey says the number of records has doubled this year and nesting has been confirmed. For more information, contact him at tcellingson@juno.com.

It is possibly the second state record...the GREAT BLACK-BACKED GULL seen by Scott Barnes at Arrowwood National Wildlife Refuge north of Jamestown on June 27.
