CObirders, We rounded out our storm birds this morning with a McCown's longspur spotted by Scott Rashid, the third record for Lake Estes, and a high- flying solo American white pelican, seen first by Ann Reichhardt, an early-date record by four days. Vesper sparrows also made their first appearance of the season.
Also noteworthy was a flock of over 100 white-faced ibis that sat huddled together on the shore during the worst of the storm. As the storm moved in Thursday, we had Bewick's wren, Bonaparte's gull, horned larks, American pipits, and a female common yellowthroat.
