snow bunting sightings today!!


saw 2 huge flocks of these beautiful little birds while traveling today.
they're wintering here in the "south"---as in south of their usual arctic range.
come april they'll be back up there, pairing up and raising a family.
a flock in motion over a snowy field looks like some kind of a crazy gravity defying snowstorm off in the distance. so cool.
