While censusing waterfowl at Walden Ponds today, which feels quite silly this time of year, there was a FOS Warbling Vireo, Yellow Warbler, and Spotted Sandpiper. By Cottonwood was 1 Great-tailed Grackle and an American Bittern calling by the boardwalk (can't get out on the boardwalk because they are still rebuilding it, the most protracted reconstruction in the history of Boulder County, I believe). There was 1, yes, just 1 White-faced Ibis, 6 Am White Pelicans with 4 Double-crested Cormorants swimming symbiotically with them. Had 1 Solitary Sandpiper at Weiser Pond. Several nights ago in the reeds of 1 of the back Sawhill Ponds, I saw and heard a male Virginia Rail and the female was calling just below it.
