Steve,
I had the opportunity to go for Kirtland's Warbler last summer. We
had a tour with the USFWS. We did see the bird, although the day was
miserable. The land with the jack pine habitat that is necessary for their
breeding is controlled by the USFWS. I understand that it is an act of
tresspassing to go on the land where to tours go. Without being able to go
here, your chances would be very slim. One spot where they took us had a
mile long trail through old growth pine before you got to the jack pine. It
was well hidden. The other spot was directly on the side of a road, but was
well marked with "Endangered Wildlife Habitat: No Tresspassing" signs. But
hey, it is always worth a shot.
