COBirders,
I watched the Colorado Springs female Acorn Woodpecker for about 30 minutes this a.m. As reported previously, it was found by the Marty Wolf party on Saturday's Colorado Springs CBC. Although I first saw the woodpecker pecking on a low branch of a silver maple along Willow Circle near Cheyenne Blvd (not Cheyenne Rd and not Cheyenne Mtn Blvd), it eventually came to a hanging wooden cylindrical suet feeder at the house on the corner of Cheyenne Blvd and the lower end of Willow Circle near the previously mentioned coffee store. This house has a bigger than life-sized inflated green animal Santa (I am sure it has a name) with a red hat and red waistcoat in the front yard. Also, the Colorado College "Western" Palm Warbler is back skulking in its usual spot by the science building adjacent to the pink brick Palmer Building, the bird staying mostly hidden on the ground or in the low shrubbery by the bicycle racks. Photos of both birds will be posted to the CFO Group on Facebook, a good spot to post single photographs.
