For anyone who is planning a trip to the Lake Mesa area, I should have been more clear that I haven't seen potential pipits along that trail this fall; it was last year. I still think it's a potentially good place to look.

You can't leave the trail, but it goes right over the top of Lake Mesa, within easy sight of the pipit site on Davidson Mesa. http://bouldermountainbike.org/trail/mayhoffer-singletree-trail has more details. I have seen birds along there that were tantalizingly like Sprague's pipits, with the lark-then-freefall flight and "skweet" call ... but never well enough to be totally convinced about. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
