On a brief walk around Walden Ponds in Boulder, there were very few ducks out, but four vocal Wilson’s Snipe flew out from Duck Pond and landed on the trail along the boundary with Sawhill/Walden, where they were joined by robins and killdeer, foraging on the trail for something I couldn’t see in the puddles. They were quite cooperative, only flying off when the only other person there, a jogger, came down the trail. The four flew off, then returned, and then flew off again making this nasal squeaky-toy sound that I haven’t heard much. The four stayed together while flying back and forth between the trail and Duck Pond. There were also two female Mountain bluebirds, I didn’t see any males, and a number of robins expertly pulling long worms out of the ground, always a neat sight (except for the worms...). a white crowned sparrow was silent, but the goldfinches were singing in the cold.
