["lyneart" <lyneart@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave's tundra bird post inspired me to set out across some of the grain fields 
that border our farm to see what I could find. (Our name for  this treeless 
expanse is the gamma quadrant). All I saw in the open fields were a tiny flock 
of Horned Larks, a few Killdeer and some Bluebirds. At some point in the walk 
an unseen bird managed to unload on my telescope objective. When I got back 
home Alison said a Sharp-shinned Hawk had been sitting for over an hour about a 
hundred feet from the house on a saw horse in the hall of the stable, but it 
had left by then. All in all, I didn't do too well taking inspiration from Dave 
today, but there's always tomorrow.
