Dear Birders, I poked around a few ponds in Boulder this afternoon. At Cottonwood Marsh, there was 1 adult TUNDRA SWAN, 2 HORNED GREBES (transitioning into breeding plumage and therefore looking very Eared Grebe-esque plumage-wise), and a pair of NORTHERN PINTAIL. Over at Teller Farms, the GOLDEN-CROWNED SPARROW was taking a bath in a puddle next to the hedgerow by the N. Teller Lake parking lot. It was splish-splashing with an adult GAMBEL'S WHITE-CROWNED SPARROW. There were at least 15 BREWER'S BLACKBIRDS with the RED-WINGED BLACKBIRDS and EUROPEAN STARLINGS in the feed lot. There were 5 WESTERN MEADOWLARKS near the parking lot, too, one of which was singing a very beautiful sub-song. Between North and South Teller Lakes I saw 3 adult HARLAN'S HAWKS and 1 WILSON'S SNIPE. Great birding,
