ag. fields. I saw the flock of longspurs on Wells Rd. but in the light
rain and dark skies, I could really not do much with them except to see at
least one McCown's...I was too lazy to pull out the scope. The Lark
Bunting is still in the area, today with House Sparrows. 2 Horned Larks
and 4 Hooded Mergansers. A very interesting hawk was on one of the power
transmission towers but it was too far and had its back to me, but the long
wings completely hiding the tail had me wondering if it was a
Rough-legged....Likely not tho. Oh and a single Sprague's on the roadside
near the s curve on Carlson. There were two other birders up there as well
but I did not know who they were and they always ahead of me or on a
different road...(Hey guys, I was in the silver GMC pick-up you... drove
right by the Longspurs...Hope you found them later)
