Richard Stevens:
The CoBus group (Bryan Ehlmann, Jacob Washburn & Ray Simmons) conducted our Crook Christmas Count CoBus version today. Winds reached 12 mph with temperatures barely reaching 20 degrees. It was another cold day.
Before sunrise we found a Greater Prairie-Chicken north of County Roads 46 & 91.
Tamarack Ranch Wildlife Area is always a great place to bird. The highlight was two Common Redpolls near the old Tamarack Pond area.
Other uncommon birds to come across included: two Northern Cardinals, 23 Eastern Bluebirds, five Long-eared Owls and five Eastern Screech-Owls.
The previously reported Red-bellied Woodpecker & Eastern Screech-Owl were relocated at Duck Creek Wildlife Area.
Unfortunately, we did not relocate the great birds found by Kathy Mihm-Dunning along Logan County Road 77, south of CR 62 (Sharp-tailed Grouse, Greater Prairie-Chicken & Short-eared Owl).
At dusk we heard two Eastern Screech-Owls on Roger Danka's Ranch (Sedgwick).
