This are data from the Cook County Spring Bird Counts since 1972 as =
provided by Duane Heaton, Cook County compiler, on Henslow's sparrows. =
I'm not sure how they correlate with the results of monitoring efforts =
as reflected in eBird since there was such a jump in observations when =
the Grassland Blitz began in 2001. These are raw numbers with no =
indication of party hours.
Duane made these comments in 2000: Regarding "Were there larger than =
normal numbers on the Spring Bird Counts or did they show up later?"
There were 20 Henslow's Sparrows on the Cook County SBC this =
year(referring to 2000 count), breaking the previous count high of 9 in =
1983. Eight of the 20 were at Paul Douglas F.P. in northwest Cook =
County and 12 at Somme Prairie in the northern part of the county. I =
know Paul Douglas still has Henslow's (in July, 2000); I don't know =
about Somme Prairie.
Cook County SBC records of Henslow's Sparrows (bear in mind that party =
hours were lower in the earlier years):
