Hello COBIRDERS, I have a small flock of (8 or so) Common Redpolls regulary visiting my feeders in Wheat Ridge. This may be a shorter trip than going to Larimer County, so birders may come by and park in front of the driveway (but not in it please) and observe the birds from there. Best opportunity occurs at the Nyjer seed feeders, and amongst scattered feed on the ground in front of the house when flocks of House and Goldfinch arrive - the Redpolls come in only when there is safety in numbers. They are skittish and react to human activity, so you have to keep movements to a minimum - best to observe from the warmth of your vehicle? Also, I have two Schnauzers that will start barking from the front window if people try to approach - that keeps the birds away also. 3525 Estes St. Wheat Ridge (two blocks north of Crown Hill Lake) (two blocks south of 38th Ave) Bob Santangelo
