There was a Lapland Longspur is basic plumage at the State Wildlife Area on the North West Side of Pueblo Reservoir this morning. It was coming to water to drink, with a bunch of American Pipits, and a Savannah Sparrow. I took some photos of longspur, that I hope are good enough. It seems very late for this species to be so far south. The shorebird spot here is shrinking fast, as the Reservoir is letting out water. This spot today did have a Semipalmated Plover, a Semipalmated Sandpiper, three Least Sandpipers, a couple of Greater Yellowlegs, a Wilson's Snipe, and a bunch of Killdeer.
