At 2pm today, I was surprised to see hundreds of Tundra Swans sitting in a
farm field approx. 2 miles east of US 75 south of Warren (300Ave and 200th
Streets NW). I also spotted 5 Short-eared Owls flying over the CRP and
impoundment on 190th Street NW between Polk Co. 68 and 300th ave NW.
Several Northern Harriers, Red-tailed Hawks and Bald Eagles. Rough-leggeds
are still here. Several Sharp-tailed Grouse, dozens of Sandhills, Western
Meadowlarks, Tree Sparrows, Flickers. The first ticks of the season
yesterday.
