Hi, all.... There have been lots of reports of Horned Larks lately passing through the area in sizable numbers. However, it seems that at least two pairs are "on territory" locally. There are two fields on either side of Durham 57 near Scugog Point on Lake Scugog that always have Horned Larks. Today, while out walking, I encountered a pair in each field that gave every indication that they were here to stay for the season... they were shadowing each others every movement from the middle of the fields to the roadside and back again.....despite the weather, Spring must be here.
