A flock of snow buntings numbering in the hundreds was foraging in farm fields on the north side of 180th St., just west of Emery Ave,. late this morning. Also, a female Northern harrier was hunting over the farm fields just east of the entrance road to Schaar's Bluff, mid morning.
A heads-up: if you plan to bird any parks in the next several weeks, it might pay to check the internet ahead of time for a listing of scheduled deer archery hunts, for which a park may be closed. (That was the case with Spring Lake Park Reserve today, and has been true of several parks where I'd planned to exercise.)
