I have received to phone calls lately of some interesting sightings.
A friend of mine forwarded some pictures of Western Meadowlarks near Banford/McGuire. I was told there was a flock of ten in the area. Impressive numbers.
He took this picture to back-up his ID
Another non-birding friend called about a large bird that was being dive-bombed by crows near her home in town. Near Young/Lewis a large very white bird with much wider wings than a gull was in an evergreen being bombed by crows. It then flew north for a short distance with crows following and then circled back and headed towards downtown. Interesting....anyone else thinking Snowy???
All for now,
Dave
