December 11, 2008 I came across a flock of about 40-50 Horned Larks yesterday afternoon at about 1pm along Actons Corners Road near Kemptville. They were actively feeding along the roadside and had about a dozen snow buntings mixed in with them. There was also 3 ravens foraging around.
Directions: Actons corners Road can be accessed via Highway 43. If your coming from the 416, go west on Highway 43 and then North (right) on Actons Corners Road. The birds were observed beyond Scott Rd. and just south of River Rd.
