Custer National Forest
Spent 5 days in the eastern portion of the Custer; 4 surveys and 1 wind day.
Red belongs to Northern Cheyenne.
It is east of the Northern Cheyenne Tribal lands.
Birding in the Custer is easier than the sage flats, because there are more species and fewer individuals. Until now, I’ve spent mornings counting meadowlarks and buntings who will not stand still.
Eastern Kingbird
Ponderosa Juniper forests predominate.
Red-winged Blackbird
Western Meadowlark
Bullock’s Oriole
Gray Catbird
Lark Bunting male
