A cold, windy day around Killdeer Plains. Had a moderate number of raptors including 1 Rough-legged Hawk, a couple of N. Harriers, including a nice Gray Ghost, Bald Eagles, Kestrals and R-T Hawks, plus a nice Saw Whet Owl at the Owl Grove. Did not see the Barn Owl or Barred Owl. A pair of male E. Towhees was also seen at the Owl Grove. A parting consolation included a mixed flock of Horned Larks, Lapland Longspurs and a single Snow Bunting at T42 and T112 north of Upper Sandusky.
