COBirders, This afternoon I was at the “Bird Observation Platform” at Cherry Creek SP (Prairie Loop).
Out on one of the sandbars was a lone bird working the waterline. Plover/Robin sized. Dark (black/gray, not brown) head and back. Distinctive white supercilium. White chin/upper breast, with bold streaking further down the breast. Black legs and bill (short-medium length). I do not carry a camera (other than my phone), and there was no way I could get a good picture with my phone. When I got home, and started looking through my NatGeo 7th, the closest things I could find was Western Sandpiper. I’m not accustomed to them being here this early. Any other suggestions? Thanks!
