COBIRDERS,
Thursday, May 29th, I took a quick look at the north end of the Hayman
Burn (June 2002) area just north of Cheesman Reservoir, Jefferson County.
I found 4 Lewis's Woodpeckers along Forest Road 211 from Wigwam Creek to the
turnoff to Cheesman at the top of the hill, and then farther west on F.R.
560 (Stoney Pass Road) I found 4 Red-headed Woodpeckers.
This is the 8th season I have found these two species in the area, and
I have found them nesting almost every year. They will be there until at
least September. Two years ago I had 5 territories for the Lewis's. There
are 6 other species of woodpeckers and numerous other species of birds that
can be found in this region.
The last two or three years there have been Western Meadowlarks in the
area. I missed the meadowlarks on Thursday; I confirmed nesting of the
meadowlarks two years ago. The fire turned much of the area into a big
meadow...
Enjoy, Chris
