Dickcissel decline in Wisconsin sparks reader questions
In a Wisconsin column the author laments a dickcissel-less year across much of the state. He notes historical ranges, cyclical population highs, and dramatic 1964 and 1967 influxes, then reports ongoing declines since 1966 and asks readers for light on the cause. He also mentions Cedar waxwings and heron feeding as seasonal notes.
