After migrating over 2,500 kilometers from the Arctic tundra, Snow Buntings make agricultural fields and burned prairies in Wisconsin their home from now until next April.
The birds are slim and dark with black heads, necks, and breasts. Their wings are a light gray and sometimes you can catch a glimpse of white undertail coverts. Black Terns!
This summer, Faville Grove Sanctuary partnered with the Wisconsin DNR as part of the Wisconsin Bat Program to learn more about the bat species using our landscapes and what their presence reveals about our restoration progress.
