Hi Cobirders Hope you are all out there enjoying some bird watching.
Friday brought about an inch of snow on the grass and the drum
feeder. The day stayed in the upper twenties
and below freezing so that quite of bit of the snow held over into
Saturday.
So Friday was a busy day for the birds at my feeders!
Sorry to be belated.
Redwing Blackbirds over 150 swarmed into the yard with many crowded
onto the drum feeder. came twice.
Eurasian Collared Doves the usual 25 or more came and stayed awhile.
House Sparrows about 50 came and went all day.
House Finch about 15 both male and female with many males with
different amounts of red.
White-crowned Sparrows 2
Slate-colored Junco with right black tail feather missing showing all
of the white outer tail feather.
Gray-headed Juncos 2 probably first year birds.
Monday (yesterday) I went to Red Rocks the temperature got to be over
50o.
No seed out but I did see the immature Harris Sparrow for quite awhile.
Also the White-throated Sparrow came. Others came but absent were
the Scrub Jays!
I drove around to south lot and the west face of the tall cliff. I
saw a Prairie Falcon resting
on its belly surrounded by white wash"
A pleasant hour spent with only a light breeze.
Hope you all have a great new birding year.
Bob Spencer
