Got in a wonderful birding hike in the early spring snow at Martin's Meadow Nature Preserve in Andover. Saw a number of fast-moving FOY Golden Crowned Kinglets feeding with a couple of Yellow Rumped Warblers. Saw a very cooperative FOY Hermit Thrush and Flicker as well as White Breasted Nuthatch. A feeding flock of Robins rose to the trees as I worked to spot the singing Cardinal behind them. Heard lots of Jays and a Wood Duck. As I departed east on Anoka CR 7 in a cornfield to its south, I found a Horned Lark, Trumpeter Swans, Canada Geese, a couple of Mallards and, at the field's far wooded edge along with a number of deer, at least three Sandhill Cranes.
