Greetings All
Jackson State Park was a riot today. A riot of Willy Wobs (aka, Wilson's Warblers). Beyond the YELLOW-BELLIED FLYCATCHER, there were a number of birds of some interest, so I am pasting the entire list below. These observations took place between 11:30 AM and 3:30 PM with high overcast and virtually no wind. This list obviously shows that I pretty much ignored waterbirds until I got over to the Inlet Channel (se. corner of reservoir). Birds were pretty much everywhere, but the best diversity was in that little lot near Hillbilly Acres (mentioned in previous post) and along the canal you cross as you approach the state park from the south (park in small state park lot on south side of channel and then walk west along channel) Good Birding Must eat dinner Steve Mlodinow Longmont, CO Double-crested Cormorant 1 American White Pelican 35 Great Blue Heron 1 Swainson's Hawk 1 Red-tailed Hawk 3 Killdeer 1 Solitary Sandpiper (Western) 2 Franklin's Gull 100 Ring-billed Gull 10 Rock Pigeon 1 Eurasian Collared-Dove 4 Mourning Dove 4 Eastern Screech-Owl 1 Northern Flicker 1 Olive-sided Flycatcher 1 Western Wood-Pewee 6 Yellow-bellied Flycatcher 1 Hammond's Flycatcher 3 Empidonax sp. 1 Western Kingbird 1 Eastern Kingbird 1 Plumbeous Vireo 1 Cassin's Vireo 1 Warbling Vireo 6 Red-eyed Vireo 1 Blue Jay 9 Barn Swallow 30 Black-capped Chickadee 1 House Wren 6 Ruby-crowned Kinglet 4 Townsend's Solitaire 2 Swainson's Thrush (Olive-backed) 2 American Robin 14 Gray Catbird 2 Brown Thrasher 3 Black-and-white Warbler 1 Orange-crowned Warbler 1 MacGillivray's Warbler 1 American Redstart 6 Yellow Warbler 11 Yellow-rumped Warbler (Audubon's) 9 Townsend's Warbler 2 Wilson's Warbler 131 Yellow-breasted Chat 1 Western Tanager 2 Lazuli Bunting1 Red-winged Blackbird 1 Yellow-headed Blackbird 1 Common Grackle 2 House Finch 45 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
