The male Rose-breasted Grosbeak that I encountered on Sunday (5/22) continues today (5/23) at deKoevend Park in Centennial (Arapahoe Co.). He was in the field behind Shelter / Picnic Area "A," which is adjacent to and just northwest of the tennis courts. When I saw him, he flew from the northern corner of this field (near a pedestrian bridge) to the southern edge; both edges intersect the Big Dry Creek. The areas around the creek and, increasingly, the west portion of the High Line are especially birdy. Today, the park contained a male Bullock's Oriole, a Swainson's Thrush, two or three Warbling Vireo, a Plumbeous Vireo, one or two Black-headed Grosbeaks, 9 or 10 Western Tanagers, and a singing Wilson's Warbler. I may have missed something among these. I didn't bird the east side of the park / High Line Canal. Perhaps it's equally birdy, but it usually isn't.
I'm happy to say that the Rose-breasted Grosbeak was eBird number #100 for deKoevend, changing its marker from the off putting, cold blue to the inviting, warmer green. - Jared Del Rosso Centennial, CO -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
