[JanKShaw@xxxxxxx]

12-7-05
Phillip Casteel and I saw the Black-throated Sparrow (Lincoln Co.) this 
morning about 8:45 in its usual place by the here sign.  Then it flew left a 
little 
ways and landed in a couple other brush piles.  It was refound by the here 
sign by Carol Wolf about 1/2 hour later and we watched it as it foraged on the 
ground.  Also seen or heard were lots of pipits, longspurs, and Horned Larks.

We also saw 4 Whooping Cranes at the lake in Winchester (Franklin Co.).  Two 
were out in the water, and the other two with 18 Sandhill Cranes along the 
near shoreline.
