"Snow Birds" in McNall's Fields

[Counselor]

Saw a HUGE flock of small white birds in McNall's fields (the one by the house) yesterday and Friday.  Did not get a real good look at them but the only thing that comes to mind is  that they may have been Snow Buntings.  Did anyone else see them?  Any thoughts on what they might have been?

Didn't see this particular flock, but I have seen them and I would guess you are right, they are snow buntings. They swoop and dive and twitter as a flock; quite pretty to see and delightful to hear.
