My results birding around Horicon Marsh today were similar to Mikko's - had 
lots of Red-tails, but just one Rough-leg (on the dike south of the pumphouse 
on Hwy 49.)  Also had a Kestrel along W. Point Rd. by the Bud Cook Hiking Area, 
and scattered ones and twos of Horned Larks flushing off the roadsides.  I did 
have a little flock of seven Snow Buntings near where W. Point Rd. turns into 
S. Point Rd. - one of the females was getting into breeding plumage with a very 
noticeable dark cap.  Also had four dozen Turkeys farther east on S. Point Rd. 
- easily the biggest flock I've seen around Horicon.  Surprisingly, I only 
kicked up a few Horned Larks on Centerline Rd.
