200+ Snow Buntings (mostly), Horned Larks, and Lapland Longspurs were
along CTH B between Lake Mills and the Dane County line this morning.
There are wide shoulders so you can pull off and wait for them to land
in front of your car for good looks. Longspurs are beginning to change
over to their breeding plumage.
Less than 1/2 mile west of Rock Lake, there's a manure spread north of
CTH B that had at least 25 crows. A large flock of small birds took off
and landed again - too far to see without scope.
Stoney Creek Rd. is nearby if you want to try for the Harris's Sparrow.
I didn't have time.
Dane County - CTH BB to Hwy 73: 0 buntings, etc.
