Cold and breezy and wet! But It was a fun shorebird day, aided by the weather. I observed 19 species of shorebirds at Chatfield SP and at Hine Lake in Robert A. Easton Regional Park, JeffCo. Both locations seemed to have birds coming and going during the light rain, and then going or staying when the rain lifted out. The full list of shorebirds is below. Also lots of teal today, with 338 Blue-winged leading the way from my checklists.
