Hello, COBIRDERS. I'm the Louisiana birder who Scott Roederer helped with the WEVI post the other day. Anyway, I'm staying in Boulder for five weeks, and I went to Walden Ponds this morning because I wore my legs out hiking yesterday. Most everything I got today seemed pretty normal as far as I can tell. The list is posted below; I birded most of the area exept the NW corner. I recall something about a Bittern being there, but I didn't know which pond. Looking forward to meeting several of you while I'm here. If anyone wants to go birding, please email me off-list.
