I drove up US 75 to Angus this afternoon, looking for the snowy owl.
Did not see it.

However, the snow buntings and horned larks were as thick as the blowing
snow on both sides of US 75 between Crookston and Warren. I stopped
counting when I got past 1,000. Mixed flocks and single species flocks
all along the road.
=20
Also spotted a lone prairie chicken in a field just north of the
Crookston airport, right next to the road. I got the best look ever.
Also a flock of a dozen sharp-tailed grouse just south of Euclid - also
close to the road.
