Cobirds:
Just got back from Nebraska (see note below). A short canvas
of select spots in Boulder County:
The bobolinks are back at the Boulder Open Space headquarters land, off
Cherryvale road and adjoining properties to the east. Very observable,
singing, and seems like more than last year.
Savannah sparrows are back singing in the same locations as above.
There is a small colony of grasshopper sparrows on Boulder County Open
Space off Marshall Road and 66th - where the Mayhoffer-Singletree bike
trail begins. Please be careful where you step, as rattlesnakes frequent
this area.
Old Saint Vrain Road in Lyons is hot, as well as the lower sections of the
Picture Rock Trail. Multitudes of yellow warblers, bullock's orioles,
black headed grosebeaks, western tanagers, house wrens, wild turkey,
western wood pewee, green tailed towhees, blue gray gnatcatchers,
goldfinches, eastern kingbirds, rock wrens, canyon wrens, and many others.
If you are going to Chadron State Park in Nebraska, I've compiled an
interesting bird list for there. If you'd like a copy I'll send it to you.
(email me personally - don't clog Cobirds). It's an interested mix of
western and eastern species.
FYI; Thanks for the many nice email comments about the snake report.
I'm glad to hear that birders are more "generalists" than I thought. ;)
