Guthrie Rd is a 3.5-mile gravel road with vast open fields on either side. Horned Larks, American Pipits, Killdeer, Dickcissel and sometimes even Rusty Blackbirds, Lapland Longspurs and Short-eared Owls can be seen here during the winter months. Sparrows include Song, Savannah, Grasshopper, Field, White-crowned, White-throated and Vesper. Raptors such as American Kestrel, Red-tailed Hawk, and Northern Harrier can also be found here. There is little traffic on this road, so it’s easy to pull off to the side to scan the sky and fields with your optics.
