Greetings All
Sorry for the delayed post. Yesterday afternoon I had an adult NEOTROPIC CORMORANT swimming with a DC Cormorant near the east side of Lower Latham Reservoir. Both birds flew off (hence not a post from-the-spot). The Neotropic is similar in size to a Western Grebe. In all, from Crow Valley to Union Reservoir, I had 106 species. Crow Valley was bird scarce, but had the long-staying RED BELLIED WOODPECKER and an early ORANGE CROWNED WARBLER as well as a location-rare 2 Hooded Mergansers Eaton Cemetery had a nice little group of YR Warblers and a GRAY HEADED JUNCO Glenmere Park in Greeley had 4 BUSHTITS in the junipers in the sw. corner of the park. These have been present for a couple years. There were 2 Black-crowned Night Herons on the island, but there is no evidence of breeding A GADWALL x N SHOVELER was at Stewarts' Pond 17 LEAST,1 BAIRD'S and 1 SEMIPALMATED SANDPIPER were at Behren's Reservoir (ponds across from the actual res) BN STILTS were still at Loloff Reservoir and the Weld Co Rd 59 Ponds Firestone Gravel Pits had a CACKLING GOOSE, 6 HOODED MERGS, a COMMON GOLDENEYE and lots of Bufflehead and RB Mergs Union Reservoir was busy with 700+ Franklin's Gulls, a LESSER BLACK-BACKED GULL, 5 species of swallows, 2 WILLET...
