Hi All, I made a loop through northwest Iowa today spending most of my time poking around in O'Brien County. Highlights of my trip included 2 Townsend's Solitaires at the previously-reported location of 470th and Waterman Avenue in O'Brien County, my first mixed flock of Lapland Longspurs and Horned Larks (about 50 birds) of the fall/winter in O'Brien County, a single Northern Shrike in Clay County, and a single Trumpeter Swan at Little Wall Lake in Hamilton County.
