Hello, Birders.
Just back from a lunch-break visit to Panama Reservoir, Boulder County, where I saw a not-too-close Pluvialis plover that I'm pretty sure was an American Golden-Plover. Never saw it in flight, though, and didn't hear it call. It was hanging out mainly near the west shore, often at the water's edge, but never actually in the water--and sometimes back in the grassmud a little bit. It was keeping loose company with some Killdeer. There were 3 or more longspurs out there, one of which was a McCown's at the terminus of 115th Street. And although this may not excite everybody, I saw the largest flock of Eurasian Collared-Doves I have ever seen: close to 300 around the edges of the kestrel-infested cornfields just west of the rez. Lots of Franklin's Gulls, pelicans, Aechmophori, etc. Ted Floyd [email protected] Lafayette, Boulder County, Colorado -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
