Around noon today I found a large mixed flock of Horned Larks, Lapland Longspurs, and Snow Buntings in a cornfield north of Nevada on 150th St., between 600th Ave. and 610th Ave.
At the Nevada Municipal Cemetery I found a flock of around a dozen Pine Siskins and a Red - breasted Nuthatches. At Ada Hayden in Ames there were 24 Trumpeter Swans, a single Ross' Goose, a handful of Greater White-fronted Geese and a few Common Goldeneyes amongst the throng of Canadas and Mallards.
