I arrived at Club Hollow Road at 7 a.m. today (6/22) and met  Dave & Ellen 
Cohen who had seen the bird for a few minutes as early as 6:30  a.m.  They 
called my attention to the birds "song," and at about 8:00 I and  several other 
birders saw the bird.  I got several good scope looks.   It strikes me that the 
song of this bird is a-typical for the Henslow's I've  heard -- admitedly not 
more than two or three -- certainly not much like the  advertised "se-lick", 
more like an insectish "tsrrrrrrk."  Has anyone else  noted this and does anyone 
know of any alternate songs or calls for the  species?  I have not ruled out 
the possibility that my hearing is heading  south.
    While waiting for the bird to present itself, I  noted: an overflight by 
a Common Raven, heard an Eastern Meadolark, Blue  Grosbeak, White-breasted 
Nuthatch and saw a first year male Orchard Oriole  and an Eastern Phoebe  along 
with all the usual suspects.
