Last night I was outside building a 7 ft snowman with my four year old daughter and heard rustling just across the street. I looked up just in time to see three Hungarian Partridge land on the neighbors lawn. I grabbed Cid and started to creep on the birds. That's when she spied a single "Hun" that was only 10 feet away in a juniper brush. We froze, the bird froze and for a moment we were stopped in time. Then a small explosion erupted and all the birds flew down to another neighbors, hopefully to fascinate them as much as they did us. It wasn't the prairie but definitely a gift from mother nature. Make sure you get out and enjoy the holidaze!
