On and around Saxton Road off Indian Field Road north west of Genoa, I enjoyed
seeing at least 65 Horned Larks & 7 Snow Buntings foraging on & in roads by big
Sunnyside Dairy.
Probably after road salt & droppings from large farm trucks that went by.
Then saw roughly 300 European Starlings
Saw 50 Horned Larks foraging in grass beside pavement at ~48 Emmons Rd Lansing,
east of Rt 34-B.
FOY for me!

Thanks for these observations Fritzie. I care. I'm there with you. It's a
tragedy. And now we are on the cusp of another horrible pesticide related to
Agent Orange being approved. Along with new agent orange ready GMO companion
plants. I, too, have silently blooming white clover in my yard. I
My garden which I've designed for bees butterflies is also relatively and
sadly quiet.

We'll join that observation and sentiment. Lynda, we were just commenting on how
safe it is to walk barefoot -not at all a good thing.
We've studied all this to death and it's past time for action. Does anyone know
where the academic leadership is on this (these) issues? Continually amazed

That would certainly put a crimp in our frivolous birding activity! :-)
For anyone whose birding habit is already costing too much at the pump, I'd
like to recommend backyard beekeeping; it's truly a wonderful hobby.

I wonder how much last winter affected insects. It was hard on me.

loads of Horned Larks. Also, a nice, large, roundish hawk up in a tree

(again) to wait for it too move for identification. Also saw a Northern
Harrier
There was a flock of HORNED LARKS on Center Road this morning. We first
saw them flying and circling around, then observed them doing their ground
scampering and hopping about. They were fun to watch, especially since

South of Auburn on Silver Street Rd. near the Fleming/Scipio Townline Rd.: two
apparently separate flocks of Horned Larks (roughly 10 in each) were scavenging
whatever is available at the roadside scraped up by recent plows; also an
unidentified sparrow among them (small, like a Savannah
A half dozen Horned Larks followed the snow to Cayuga View Rd in TBurg this
afternoon. Previously, with zero snow, there had been zero HLarks. The wind
blows across the corn fields and leaves little lark tidbits on the shoulders of
the road.

This afternoon John I were slowly driving along a section of Waldron Rd. east
of Union Springs when we scared 5 horned larks from the center of the graveled
road.
The field alongside had been sprayed with slurry last wk. then plowed so the
larks had good pickins'! An adjacent field is
