We ended up just visiting friends in Southwestern Manitoba and returning the same night. My old 1500 dollar car misbehaved on the way back but we made it OK. I think the car is saying that it has given me back more than the 1500 I invested a year and a half ago!
We saw few birds along the way. However, there were a few ravens usually singles or at most pairs. However, south of Virden we encountered a very large flock of snow buntings. I thought we would have regular sighting of them in our over a hundred mile trip but those were the only ones we saw.
The feeder still has the regulars but I actually saw two Savannah sparrows at the feeder yesterday so at least we have one new species along with the chickadees, house sparrows, and red-breasted nuthatches.
