Birders, Today we did our monthly bird walk at Barr Lake. There were NO Western Tanager's (they were everywhere else) or many migrants to speak of. The best birds were:
Common Loon (alternate plumage) Winter Wren (near the end of the Niedrach trail at the east end of the tunnel of trees) There were only 3 warbler species and 2 thrush (Swainson's and Robin). The Bullock's Orioles have returned. There were 2 Osprey at the platform just before the banding station but they were flushed by a boat in a restricted area that cruised right under the platform. The area under the platform is not restricted and at present, I can't see any efforts being taken to protect the Ospreys platform from disturbance.
