COBIRDERs:
Late this afternoon (Tuesday, March 24, 2009), Pat Hayward saw about a dozen Turkey Vultures in flight over the Mountain-Washington Roost in downtown Fort Collins. I did not see any vultures at this roost at 6:00 am today, and these are the first seen at the roost this spring that I know of. I did see a single vulture over my home on the afternoon of Feb. 26, 2009. Todd Deinenger reported a single vulture near the Adams/Broomfield County Line early on the morning of Feb. 27, 2009. Few other vultures were reported until this week. These two February observations likely involved two different birds, one of which may have been the wintering bird widely reported several times earlier in the winter. There seemed to be a larger-than-usual number of American Robins passing through today. Three male Common Grackles (FOS) showed up at our feeders in the late afternoon.
