Cobirds:
Here are some of the results for the Boulder County Audubon
raptor tour from Saturday. The "hot-spots" were Sandstone Ranch Park in
Weld County, Laggerman Reservoir (Boulder County), and along County Line
Road (Boulder \ Weld).
Bald Eagle - we started with a bald eagle at the parking lot (Walden
Ponds) and ended with one at the parking lot; 15 total - including
subadults and adults - including a very close up look at a subadult at
Laggerman Reservoir area.
Ferruginous Hawk - 2 - both flying; fairly good look at one flying at
Laggerman area.
Red-tailed hawk - 29 minimum, but probably much more. All color phases
including dark morphs, light morphs, and immatures.
Rough-legged hawk - 6 mimimum - best looks were at Sandstone Ranch, and
along County Line Road (Weld County side)
Northern Harrier - 1 - only one seen at a distance at Sandstone Ranch
American Kestrel - 28 mimimum - most see along roads on power wires.
Other highlights included:
Tundra swan - 8 at Valmont Res.
Northern shrike - 1 - White Rocks Trail
White crowned sparrow - 2 - White Rocks Trail
American tree sparrow - 7 - White Rocks Trail
Keep watching those upcoming field trips for Boulder Audubon - they have a
lot of 'em coming up.
