Cobirders- several years ago, a blackburnian warbler lingered for a couple of
days at Welchester Tree Park in Lakewood. If anyone has a record of this
sighting, could you please contact me off-list? I have not been able to find
it in eBird or Colorado records, though my search skills are somew
COBirders,
This morning a damp but bright White-crowned Sparrow appeared in our back
yard, right on time. Over the last couple of decades we generally have had
one or more of this species show up right about this date. While they are
regularly found off and on the year 'round along the Arkansa
Greetings I had over 100 sparrows on the move this damp April morning.
Most of the sparrow's were on the North side of McMurry Natural Area

to be a majority of Vesper Sparrow's with a few White-crowned Sparrows and

We just (5:10 p.m.) saw our FOS lazuli bunting at our backyard seed feeder

Sparrows, plus a small number of Vespers.

On Monday,
Some good birds to be seen in the south valley today, though conditions were
windy and birds were staying low in cover.
MVNWR: Brant is still there (Rio Grande County). It hangs with 2 Cackling
Geese and a Canada Goose off the 8S location.
On the auto tour loop there were 4 Ross’ Geese. About

Hello All,
Having seen one of the Eastern Phoebes on territory at its nest site along the
Big Thompson River Walk two days ago, I was slightly surprised to hear an
Eastern Phoebe as I walked out of the King Soopers at the intersection of Taft
and 14th in southern Loveland this afternoon. I ha
FINALLY, after at least 8 hours of searching over 3 days time, I laid eyes on
the White-eyed Vireo at Lamar Community College Woods this morning. I saw it a
total of maybe two minutes around noon, then lost it in the blowing leaves and
never saw it again. The location was due east of the middl
