Hi Lee,

I alway think of snow buntings as being in wide open spaces.  At the
Shelburne airport -- a wide open space, so to speak -- we occasionally
have a flock hang out for extended periods.  They are not at all shy
about coming right up to one of the hangers where some years generic
bird seed is cast on the ground by hand.
