From another Diana -- we have had snow buntings (10-40 at a time)
at our front yard bird feeder and in the gravel driveway since
January. (No kidding. Just ask Mark Alt.) Anyhow, we have a "lone
oak" in an unmowed area across the driveway and they often cluster
in the top of the oak, just hanging out as they wait for their next
approach to the feeder. With the spring-like weather, all but a
half dozen have moved on. We still have redpolls and our
winter-long resident rough-legged hawk has been joined by 2 others.

p.s. And a sight I've never seen: scores of snow buntings were perched
in the lone mature tree in the middle of the south field. In a tree??
But I saw them as they commuted between the field and the lone tree
perch!
