[cobirds] Dickcissel irruption article and atlas blocks

Hi birders,

An article summarizing the current Dickcissel irruption can be found here:

I have observed several singing males in our atlas block Hygiene SE
but am trying to find some birds that have avoided multiple hay cuts
for a successful nest. So if you have atlas blocks in appropriate
habitat in our western plains/foothills interface, it might be worth
revisiting your block to see if you have breeding Dickcissels. I have
my eye on a nice weedy patch with lots of annual sunflower.

Best,
