James Levison from Fairbanks sent these two photos of the McKay’s Bunting that has been wintering at the Plant Material Center in ‘The Butte’. Member Charlie Sartor discovered this first ever reported McKay’s in the borough before Christmas! James apologizes for the ‘bad’ pictures but they are good enough to allow comparison to Snow Buntings. Snow Bunting in left side of right photo.
