I had a couple of nice surprises today. This morning I had a female Northern 
Flicker at 11,400 feet on Niwot Ridge. The only other birds up there were 
White-crowned Sparrows, American Pipits and Gray-headed Juncos. No ptarmigan 
This afternoon I saw and photographed a BLACK-CHINNED HUMMINGBIRD at my house. 
Black-chinned is a good bird any time in Boulder County, but 19 September is 
late here. My previous late date for Black-chinned was 10 September. My best 
judgement at this point is that the Black-chinned is an adult female, maybe the 
same one I had here in July and August.
