Hi Everyone--
Marcia Marvin and I birded at Last Chance and Jackson Reservoir State Park
today 10/7. The male Black-throated Blue Warbler came out of hiding at
12:45pm and gave good views. There was still a Swainson's Thrush among all
the Hermits. Multiple skeins of Sandhill Cranes flew over; I counted 150
seen and many more heard. Juncos around the picnic area included a young
Gray-headed. We felt a little sad that the Sora's left wing doesn't seem to
be healing well. At the Jackson Reservoir Outlet, we scoped for shorebirds
from a spot about 20 yards north of where "17" is painted on the dam ("1" is
painted at the top of the staircase out of the day use area parking lot).
There are still quite a few American Golden-Plovers at the lake's edge (a
good quarter mile from us). A dark-morph Rough-legged Hawk was along CO-144
near Weldona.
