Birders' Yesterday, 3/15, the DFO trip to Weld Co had the following: Union Reservoir: White Pelican Red-breasted Merganser 9
Latham Reservoir: Cinnamon Teal 10 Great-tailed Grackle 2 Sandhill Crane 3 (fly by) Crow Valley Campground: (the gates are still locked) Merlin The only other birds at all were 1 Flicker, 2 Mt Bluebirds and Robins. It was dead. Pawnee Grasslands: WCR 124 west of WCR 77 - 7 Rough-legged Hawks in less than 2 miles. At the Work Station north of Crow Valley, Tina Jones found a pile of owl pellets under 1 of the junipers. Unfortunately, the maker of the pellets was not to be found. There was a single observer report of a Western Kingbird east of Longmont on Hwy 119. Also on Hwy 119 in the ponds on the north side of the road west of I 25, was a very weird duck. It seemed to be a hybrid of a Gadwall and White-cheeked Pintail or Ruddy Duck. It had a Gadwall body and the head of a White-cheeked Pintail. The Boulder Bird Club trip also saw it. Despite covering Beebee Draw quite well, we had NO shorebirds except Killdeer.
