This amazing display has been going on since at least February 2, with minor variations. Two Hoary Redpolls were documented February 4, but they are elusive recently. The Meadowlark started becoming regular and easy to see a few days ago. There has also been a very reliable Ipswitch Sparrow, sometimes joined by a second.
