I checked out the dairy farm on Weaver Road in Licking County. The flock of 
horned larks, snow buntings, lapland longspurs, and American pipits left the 
fields, but I located what is probably the same flock on Smoots Road, just 
west of SR 13 roaming the vast cornfields. The flock was very skittish, but 
settled near enough to identify the species.  No big raptors in the area, but 
one kestrel was nearby, looking for lunch.
