At 3:15pm today I noticed two birds under our front feeders that I didn't recognize. Lapland Longspurs! A new yard bird for us and a first time seeing this bird ever! They fed close to eachother, on the ground under the feeders for approx 20 minutes. We are located just off Hwy #35, 8 kms north of Carnarvon, 20 kms before Dorset. If anyone wants to see them, they are welcome to email me to make arrangements. As I finish typing this, they have come back to the feeders and here now. Tracy Patterson
