The Red-necked Phalarope invasion made it into the mountains in small numbers. Today in Mineral County there were 12 on the FR 523 pond and 8 on one of the two large ponds along state route 149 near the Hinsdale line. In both cases, they were in one tight cluster on the water.
Other birds of note: 3 dowitchers on the state route 149 ponds Northern Waterthrush in the willows south of the Creede sewage ponds Northern Mockingbird in those same willows. This is the third time I have seen one at this location in May, all in different years.
