We found most of the usual birds until we hit the long straight section through the rabbit brush. Here we spent most of our two hour outing sorting through a large and varied flock of birds.
*Large varied flock* Chipping Sparrow 2 Lark Bunting 1 Clay-colored Sparrows ~15 Vesper Sparrow 2 Lark Sparrow 1 Brewer's Sparrow 2 Song Sparrow 5 Wilson's Warbler 10 Orange-crowned Warbler 3 Common Yellowthroat Sage Thrasher 1 Blue Grosbeak 3 I don't think the grosbeaks were part of the flock. They were in the same area that we usually see them, which happened to be where we found the big flock. *Usual Suspects* Red-tailed Hawk Turkey Vulture Blue Jay American Robin Cooper's Hawk Barn Swallow Common Grackle Eurasian Collared Dove Blue Grosbeak Belted Kingfisher Double-crested Cormorant Red-winged Blackbird Killdeer Wilson's Snipe Mourning Dove Snowy Egret Downy Woodpecker Canada Goose Great Blue Heron Say's Phoebe Swainson's Hawk Western Kingbird Northern Flicker Eastern Kingbird Mallard Virginia Rail Rock Pigeon Red-breasted Nuthatch -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
