Holmes County, near Walnut Creek:
Leroy Troyer and I added to the list of those who've seen the Harris' Sparrow
as noted above. We were there about 4:30, unfortunately unable to get
pictures. It's a very striking individual indeed, and the owner of the property is
still very happy to welcome birders inside for a look.
In addition, the farm of Andy Troyer (Cutter Road, just outside
Fredericksburg, south of Wooster):
- about 150 Horned Lark
- 3 Lapland Longspur
- 1 Snow Bunting (Mr. Troyer has been seeing up to 3 at a time)
Likewise a very accommodating property owner.
Thanks to Leroy and to those who shared their birds with us--3 life-listers
in one, REALLY cold and windy day!
