Richard Stevens:
Gary Weston and I visited many of the WIA in Logan County today. My continuing project to obtain GPS waypoints and photographs of these possible birding locations. WIAs are "Walk-in Areas" which require a $20 pass. The areas are only opened September 1st to the end of February. See additional details in a pamphlet put out by the DOW (can be acquired at Wal-Mart, sporting goods stores or Department of Wildlife Offices).
In the afternoon we visited North Sterling Lake State Park. Two Long-eared Owls were observed in one windbreak. Not much else was moving about.
We ended our birding day at Overland Park and the Visitor's Center across the street. A White-throated Sparrow was among White-crowned Sparrows in the bushes along the S. Platte River at Overland Park. A Harris's Sparrow was found behind the Visitor's Center.
