A quick trip to Horntown Rd in Grayson County didn't disappoint. We saw 110
sandhill cranes and 2 harriers en route.
On arriving at the usual owl site, we saw seven harriers and three
short-eared owls quartering over the same long-grass field. Turning off the
car, some of them passed quite close. We could hear the scratchy owl calls
as they flew next to the car.

Red-winged blackbirds and meadowlarks were singing their brains out in the
mild evening air.
