To my surprise, I had two Greater Prairie-Chickens sitting atop a power pole along Morgan County 2 just north of Morgan CRGG this morning about 10:30am. I think they were both adult males. This location is about 4 miles nnw of Jackson Lake (very near where DeLorme Atlas shows “Sunken Lake”) and about 25 miles w of where eBird shows previous Morgan County reports (north and south of Snyder). They let me stop my car and take a few photographs but eventually got nervous, flew a short distance and landed in uncultivated prairie west of CR2. This is private land and I did not pursue them.
