Hi all,

   I tried a second time, to get the Lapland Longspur on my Life List, and it didn't cooperate.(Going to need fellow birders help with this one) I did see several Horned Larks spread out over the fields, and a Savannah Sparrow by the road. One of these days, I'll see one.  Stopped by Black Hill Regional Park to see waterfowl.  Lake is mostly frozen over, except for a couple of open patches.
