Hi,
This morning while doing Prairie Chicken counts, I came across two corn stubble fields that contained at least 500 or more Sandhills and two more fields of about a hundred or more cranes. This is the most I've seen in one bunch in Clay County. The center of activity was by the "T" of 70th ave south and 170th st. Other species of note: a covey of 4 Partridge-60th ave south and 157th st. (continue on the field road east at the curve) Merlin-(same location as the partridge) Two flocks of Tundra Swans Numerous waterfowl: Teal Mallards Ring necked Canvasbacks Gadwall Good Birding.
