COBirders,
As we were sitting in our backyard a while ago, my wife called my attention to a pair of Mississippi Kites floating around in the sky, our first of the year in Pueblo (or anywhere else). Also, a little earlier, a female Red-winged Blackbird appeared in the backyard and I got all excited because I thought it was a new yard bird. After checking my sighting records I see that once before, on April 18, 1992, there were two red-wings here at a feeder. We have lived at this suburban address for almost 40 years with just two red-wing sightings. This is a lesson for you younger birders about the value of having kept records before-and after-you get old and your memory resembles Swiss cheese.
