Out I went! Most roads were fine, but be careful, falling temps, no sun, and
Snow drifts mean bad sections again. Ice. I will wait til mid morning before
Heading out Wed. Small numbers of Horned Larks around. That was nice.
There’s some areas with grassy mud along a few road edges. I couldn’t find
A bunting or Longspur though. Needed big year species! Maybe Wed.
Armleder was surprisingly good I thought! Lots of passerines feeding on grass seeds.
Both on the grasses and on the ground. Good! I wonder how the birds make out
In this weather.
I checked a few spots for waterfowl. The best was lost bridge. The north pond
Is open. Mostly. And that could change quickly…….nothing rare there, but loads
Of Canada geese. Roosting. So no bill and head structure studying…… and they
We’re all facing me. So no back study….. I can’t win! Maybe Wed. If I make it that
Far west…..
Good birding all. Stay safe!
