Babbitt Tank

I spent an hour or so with Bea, Betsy and Steve out at Babbitt Tank looking for longspurs. We had two groups of Chesnut-collared Longspurs visit the tank at the start of our vigil before Horned Larks took over. A single Lapland Longspur and several Savannah Sparrows were also around. Other birds seen included a Prairie Merlin, Loggerhead Shrike, three Canvasback and, oddly, a single Rock Pigeon. Three new birds for the year took me to 150.
