Had a great outing on Saturday with some great folks. First off, we stopped by Bear Hollow Rd. for another look at the Harris Sparrow. the lovely bird decided to oblige us today. From there we scooted over to Andy Yoder's place to on Cutter Rd. in hopes to find our target bird. We got three for the price of one, and all three lifers for me!
1) Snow Bunting - A flock of 600+
