Thanks for the update, David. I tried for the bird twice yesterday but the wind was just too much. Just a reminder to everyone that parking is prohibited along this stretch of the road, so it would be good if birders could respect this. I think there's some sort of road race scheduled for today up there, which might make things a little crowded, especially at the reservoir entrance. Parking is a five minute walk away from the marsh in either direction, either at the Eagle Trailhead or at the Boulder Reservoir south shore entrance. Thanks, Christian Nunes Boulder

The main reason I'm sending this is to encourage the persistent and patient among you to not give up on the Boulder Reservoir Sedge Wren found by Christian Nunes on 21 April. He found the bird at the marsh on the west side of 51st Street about 1/3 mile north of the main entrance to the reservoir. I spent quite a bit of time yesterday on two visits trying to refind the bird. I thought I might have heard it yesterday, but I couldn't be sure with all the wind. Today, I definitely heard the bird call several times, some times only about 20 feet from my car. Then, inexplicably, it just went silent until I gave up on it. It's difficult to get to hear it, and almost impossible to see. David Waltman Boulder -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
