One lone male yellow-headed blackbird arrived yesterday at a pond
near our home in East Boulder County; a neighbor had called a few
hours earlier to say one was at her feeder. Blue-winged teal were at
this pond last week but I haven't seen them now for a few days.
A cinnamon teal was at one of the Sawhill Ponds yesterday, but I
didn't see the hybrid. Unfortunately, there may also be white rats at
Walden. A young woman was releasing them yesterday. I saw what was
happening just too late to stop it. She said she couldn't afford the
vet bills to treat one of them that had an infection! The Open Space
Department is aware of the problem & will try to trap & monitor the
rats.
