Hello, Birders. Hannah and Andrew and I chanced upon a nice flock of peeps at Walden Ponds, Boulder County, earlier today, Thursday, April 30th. They were at Duck Pond, they were close to the shore, and all 3 species were present: 10 alternate Semipalmated Sandpipers, 1 alternate Western Sandpiper, and 1 alternate Least Sandpiper. A great opportunity for comparative study. Also, we heard 2 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers and 1 Virginia Rail. In the birding log by Cottonwood Marsh, there was an anonymous entry for Black-and-white Warbler from earlier in the day. Over at Prince Lake No. 2, Boulder County, there were 2 Wilson's Phalaropes and 1 Western Kingbird. In the past few days, Greenlee Preserve, Boulder County, has had Wood Duck, Solitary Sandpiper, Wilson's Phalarope, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, American Pipit, and Orange-crowned Warbler. ------------------------------- Ted Floyd Editor, Birding ------------------------------- Please support the American Birding Association: Click on http://www.goodsearch.com/?charityid=884482 to search the internet.
