COBirders, Maybe of more local interest, late this evening there was a single SNOWY PLOVER along the north (northeast) shoreline of Big Johnson Reservoir. Basically the same area that the WHIMBREL was/is.
Unfortunately, the Caspian Tern was not there and nor was it there around 1 this afternoon which was soon after it was originally found. I suspect it came in and left relatively quickly. I am not sure of the timing but there was a Caspian Tern seen at Prospect Lake today as well, maybe the bird went to Big Johnson and then to Prospect? Other birds at Big Johnson this evening of interest: Greater Scaup (male that has been around for a while)Snowy Egret White-faced IbisLong-billed CurlewMarbled Godwit Greater Yellowlegs WilletLesser YellowlegsLeast Sandpiper Long-billed DowitcherWilson's PhalaropeForster's Tern Overall numbers of birds has definitely gone down but still a lot of birds to look at. -----Mark Peterson Colorado Springs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
