In pursuit of shorebirds and after checking a few local places in Boulder County (nuttin...) I wended northwards.
Lower Latham: irrigation on and water flowing, the marsh is filling up and the mudflats are ready, but only a half dozen short-billed dowitchers (looking good in the fresh feathers), a single willet, and then a flock of 20 or so Least Sandpipers flew in, doing that "Every body turn left.........NOW" thingie. Crow Valley: White-Crowned Sparrows, Yellow Rumped Warblers (Myrtle's this time) and a ton of Robins and A Goldfinches. West on Hwy 14, about one Lincoln's Sparrow every 20 feet until I hit the burn area.
