Tools in the tool box can never be a bad thing. I am not much of a chaser these days although there are some I would pursue. Last years Red-naped Sapsucker was one of those I did chase, and in that case, checking the latest and best info on FB would have been helpful. We did see the bird the old fashioned way, with some help from Ira S!
I am a strong supporter of our COBIRDS list, a quick and concise source of info on what's happening in our State. In fact, I have trouble finding current bird data in other states and am proud of all who have kept ours running so well. Being here in the San Luis Valley, I am quickly able to assess birds of interest and decide if I wish to travel considerable distances to chase. Another useful tool in my opinion. It is great times to have such choices! John Rawinski Monte Vista, CO On Saturday, December 8, 2018 at 11:02:20 AM UTC-7, Robert Righter wrote: > > Hi > > Leon Bright makes a good point.
