Hi Everybody: 

I took a half day off from work and drove up to Washington County with the hopes of looking for Longspurs and possibly Snow Buntings among Horned Lark flocks. I did not have any luck with either species. I found 3 HORNED LARKS by the side of Broadfording Road about 1/2 mile west of Spickler Road. On the corner of Broadfording & Spickler Roads there was one flock of HORNED LARKS - I counted 89 but there was nothing else mixed in with them. These were the only Horned Larks I was able to find.

I also found a single SAVANNAH SPARROW further down Spickler Road. I also found 3 AMERICAN TREE SPARROWS on Cress Pond Road.
