From Timothy L Thompson: 02/13/14 - Groton, Avery Point, UConn Campus -- Snowy Owl sitting 100yds due west of lighthouse. In the snow on walking trail. Same bird from yesterday, dark cap, dark sides and back. From Jan Collins: 02/13/14 - Somers, Billings Rd near 9th District Rd intersection -- 40-45 SNOW BUNTINGS feeding along the road in between dodging traffic. I occasionally see 4-5 Buntings mixed in with Horned Larks but this is the first time I have seen this large a flock, all Snow Buntings, in Somers. Also, a couple days ago in the "raptor tree" at the west end of the open fields on Hutton Rd, 2 PEREGRINE FALCONS, hopefully a pair, one was perched while the other was performing an impressive aerial display around it. From Brian Kleinman: 02/13/14 - East Granby, Intersection of 189/North Road -- this morning I noticed 5 sparrow sized bird foraging in the snow in the middle of route 189 right where North Road intersects. As I got closer I was amazed to see that they were SNOW BUNTINGS. There are plenty of tobacco fields around and Simsbury Airport is only a mile away, so it makes sense that they¹re in the area, just surprised to see them at the corner of my driveway!
