Andy Bicek, Mike Holtz, and I birded Scott County from 8:05- 11:55 this morning. We found 56 species. Many of the lakes were iced-over yet, but we managed to find 12 species of ducks. There were two Snow Geese at the New Prague sewage pond. The best find was three Lapland Longspurs at the Louisville Swamp. They were less than 100 yards up the trail which begins just to the north (right side) of the parking lot.
