My wife Deena and I made a quick stop at the S. marina tires this afternoon (around 3pm) to see what the cold weather brought down from up north.
The head of my tripod decided it was a good time to fall off (stripped threads - argh!) and we didn't have much time to sort through all the birds, but gull numbers seemed to be up and we were able to pick out the following species on the tires: Ring-billed Gulls Herring Gulls California Gulls Lesser Black-backed Gulls (2 individuals: 1 ad., 1 distant bird that looked 3+) Great Black-backed Gull (1 ad.) There was also a possible 1st-2nd winter Glaucous Gull on the tires, but I could never get a decent look at it's head or hind end. It should be an interesting weekend at the Pueblo Res. with all the water up north freezing up! Good birding, Paul H. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
