Hi Margaret,
I'm not sure where he was looking but I have to imagine this was a little
bit of writers license for a national audience when he stopped at the rest
stop outside Burns called Sage Hen Hill. Overall the author did a good job
on the article and I think he was genuinely interested in the birds of the
area. It was a fun day of birding anyhoot:)
