Finally…. After years of counting Wild Turkey provisionally on my property list (I had a 20-year
old picture of turkeys on the east deck when my in-laws lived here), we had 6 turkeys visit today… Apparently 2 males, each with 2 hens loosely attached. ‘Official’ Davis property list at 938 Colard….. 132 species. Not bad for dry open ponderosa at 6,000 feet, With no deciduous trees to speak of, and ¾ mile from the nearest open water. So the property list is weak on ducks, warblers, gulls, shorebirds, grebes, and anything pelagic, like albatross. (I do have Belted Kingfisher, but don’t expect to see American Dipper here!!!) Also today… 16 American Goldfinches and 2 Pine Siskins, no sign of redpolls. Plus the usual suspects. (did not hear the pinyon jays today) d Davis - at 6,000 ft. NW of Lyons 303-823-5332 call if you want to come up birding, but don’t count on the turkeys. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
