"The Flight Of The Snow Buntings" by Debbie Oppermann. Driving the country roads north of Guelph Ontario Canada, I was thrilled to spot the Snow Buntings. Visiting from the arctic, they are usually found on farm land in flocks. This flock of the Snowflakes, as they are sometimes called because they look like snowflakes when swirling around the fields had been just feeding on corn left in the farmers field.
