Hi all, This post is mainly to let anyone who was thinking of making the trip to Pueblo this weekend to see the previously reported juvenile Long-tailed Jaeger, that the bird seems to be not present this morning - so this post might save people the long trip. It was quite windy yesterday, and it likely left then. I scoped all the places I had seen the bird on Monday to Wednesday and a few other places and no Jaeger to be found. As most of you know, Pueblo Reservoir is a big reservoir and rare birds that I think are gone sometimes reappear at some other part of the reservoir (like last year's adult Black-legged Kittiwake). I will certainly post, if the bird does show up again.
If anyone does come to Pueblo this fall or winter, please let me know if you find anything rare, like any scoters, rare loons, or rare gulls, or anything else. I always try to help other birders see rare things that I find around here when I can and they ask. The Jaeger was seen by nine other birders as far as I know, which isn't too bad for Monday to Wednesday bird. Good birding, Brandon K.
