On Sunday I visited the parking lot at Teller Farm, where I found 4 sparrows in the bushes behind the fence: tree, white-crowned, song, and golden-crowned. Got a good look at the latter when it was feeding in the parking lot with the white-crowns.
Then I went to Longmont to try to locate the varied thrush. I followed a flock of about 50 robins around for an hour or two, from Baylor and Mountain View to Fowler Lane off Airport Road. I never did locate the thrush, though a bald eagle did fly over and scatter the robins at one point. I also saw a group of robins feeding along Hover Road near all the shops. They were feeding in a group of small trees with red fruit right along Hover (I can't remember if the trees were in front of the King Soopers or somewhere else along the strip). If anyone else has seen the thrush lately in Longmont, please let me know.
