Today a group of five birders including myself went on a trip to Killdeer 
Plains.  On the way back to Columbus we made a quick stop at Big Island.  
The highlights of the day were a flock of about 50 to 60 sandhill cranes 
that flew over, about 25 tundra swans, a flock of 40 or so cackling geese, 
and some really good looks at some short-eared owls.  The complete list 
follows.
