Hi all,
Our HARRIS'S SPARROW continues today, now in full alternate plumage, a very dapper gray, black and white bird, looking very different to the day we first saw him back in early December (well, we figure its male as it sings daily). He's suddenly now getting aggressive to any Red-winged Blackbirds that get anywhere close to him.. time to go find a mate? WHITE-CROWNED SPARROWS - up to a record 8 in the yard PINYON JAYS still visiting daily too, in much reduced numbers now. BLUE-GRAY GNATCATCHER in the yard yesterday - FOS for yard EVENING GROSBEAKS up to 35 Intriguing report of a possible Vermilion Flycatcher - yesterday in Aspen (Pitkin Cty). Male, in a tree between the base of the Gondola and the square. Excellent description by a friend who feeds birds in Snowmass and knows all the usual suspects well.. He's looking again today.. Finally, after days of wind and snow (that'll teach us to unplug the headed bird water!) - a blue sky day.. spring is coming (again)! Good birding all Dick Filby Carbondale -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
