During the Boulder Audubon meeting on Tues. evening, when I ducked outside for a quiet catch-up with a friend, a common nighthawk flew over, vigorously croaking. A timely entrée en scene -- my FOS bird; I loved it.
I also finally found bobolinks in the usual places in S. Boulder, no thanks to faithful bob reporters Bob Spenser and Bob, I mean Bill Kaempfer, who usually tell us right away when these birds appear! Were the birds really late this year (I used to see one by May 8 every spring)?? Ovenbird in upper foothills, south Boulder; found by Sandra Laursen & me on her eco-steward overview. (Are you keeping secrets too, Christian?) This bird, amazingly, was not only in the same area as last year at end of June--but was in the SAME TREE. We are questioning its sanity (repeating an act twice and expecting a different outcome), since it did not breed last year, as far as we could determine. Can anyone please supply a female; and while you're at it, bring a female Sc Tanager for Greg Canyon, just in case.
