Apologies for the delayed post, but in case there are others on the list that haven't been able to make a trip there yet, as of yesterday mid-morning a good number (>100) of Smith's Longspurs remained at Paul Errington Marsh in Polk County. There were also quite a few Lapland Longspurs present in the area including with some of the Smith's, very windy conditions and cryptic birds but fairly reliably located.
