[cobirds] Mirants 9/12 Lakewood/Jeffco
Yesterday, I decided to bird Belmar Historic Park once the drizzle and storm were on their way out. Belmar was pretty quiet except for a Loggerhead Shrike (first for the park), and a large flock of birds that had Wilson's(many), Townsend's(3), Yellow-rumps, Warbling Vireo, and Chipping Sparrows. I decided to watch my small suburban yard between 2p-4p. The yard was extremely active now that the front had moved on. I'm curious how the birding will be behind the front. Here is the list of some of the 24 species seen during this brief period: Townsend's Warbler Cassin's Vireo Warbling Vireo--3 Wilson's Warbler--5 Western Tanager--5 Orange-crowned Warbler Red-breasted Nuthatch--4 Mountain Chickadee Green-tailed Towhee Spotted Towhee Pine Sisken--15 Black-chinned Hummingbird(many including a few males) Broad-tailed Hummingbird(Many including a couple of males) Red-wing Blackbird-4 Western Scrub Jay--4 Mark ChavezLakewood-Green Mtnhttp://jaeger29.smugmug.com/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Colorado Birds group.

It was in the triangle north of the visitor center very close to the John Martin Reservoir sign. It liked to perch beneath the canopy of the two juniper trees flanking the sign, often taking foraging sallies out into the mowed weeds, fence lines and lowest branches of trees and utility poles nearby on September 2. --A Great-Crested Flycatcher was reported by Nelson at Temple Grove on September 5. --A Baltimore Oriole was reported by Nelson at Temple Grove on September 5.

Baird's Sparrows within 45 mins. before reaching the 90-degree bend in Drennan Road, there was 1 cooperative ad. Baird's Sparrow on Drennan Rd. just east of that 90 degree bend. Note, it would be most appreciated if those of you who have been there to go to your My eBird section and then to Locations and change the name to Drennan Road from whatever name you used for species seen near there.

[cobirds] Pine Warbler -- Pueblo, 9/13
I saw a Pine Warbler this morning, east of the Osprey Picnic Area on the North Side of the Arkansas River, below Pueblo Reservoir dam. It was with Yellow-rumped Warblers and other birds. The bird had a yellow throat, I'm thinking maybe a first year male perhaps. The tail was long, the back was green.

[cobirds] Large numbers of Cedar Waxwings, W Wood Pewee (Arapahoe)
This morning Micki and I found 20-25 Western Wood Pewees and about 100 Cedar Waxwings zooming around at the south end of Hudson Gardens in Littleton, the latter taking advantage of the many berry bearing trees in this beautiful park. We also saw Peregrine Falcon, Barn Owl, Great Horned Owl, and Red-tailed Hawk but could not count them because they were tethered to a Hawk Quest volunteer for a special photo shoot. Hudson Gardens is on the west side of Santa Fe Drive at the second traffic light south of Bowles. Admission is free.

[cobirds] Crow Valley CG (Weld) on 9/12/14
Nina Routh, Mike Serruto, and I birded Crow Valley Campground today from about 9am-2pm. Hundreds of scouts were camped in the elm grove n of the Main Picnic Shelter. They were hauling logs out of the south fenceline area (doing conservation work according to the adult leaders involved) and doing lots of stick fighting and throwing, but, really, for such a big group, it was not all that noisy or disruptive to birding or the birds. Highlight species were: *Nashville Warbler (m, race undetermined) low in the weeds/willows southwest of the Main Picnic Area Gray Flycatcher (1) probably the same bird that has been around for a while now Hammond's Flycatcher (2-3) Dusky Flycatcher (1) Least Flycatcher (1) Townsend's Warbler (at least 6 (one of which might have had some Black-throated Green in it, no good photos unfortunately), almost every one we saw was in Siberian Elm) Red-naped Sapsucker (1m) FOS for me down low Cassin's Vireo (3: 2 dull, 1 bright) Warbling Vireo (1) Orange-crowned Warbler (4) MacGillivray's Warbler (1f) Black-headed Grosbeak (1) Western Tanager (2-3) Sharp-shinned Hawk (2) Ferruginous Hawk (1 flyover) Pine Siskin (3) Red-breasted Nuthatch (4) White-breasted Nuthatch (1) Hairy Woodpecker (1 mountain form Townsend's Solitaire (3) Solitary Sandpiper (1) Cassin's Kingbird (1 heard well) Hummingbird sp. (1) Oh yeah - Wilson's Warbler (at least 50, probably more like 75) We ran into Jack from eastern Boulder County who said he was with a group earlier this morning that had a Great Crested Flycatcher in the Group Area in the nw corner plus a couple unidentified hummingbirds, one of which might have been a Calliope. We did not see the big flycatcher and only had a brief glimpse of our hummingbird, which also went unidentified. Total of 42 species for the cg and a brief drive thru Briggsdale.

[cobirds] RMBO Ridgway Banding Report 9/12/14 and 9/13/14
Yesterday had been a great day, with 14 birds banded, which was good for the school kids. Unfortunately, it was fairly slow today, the Public Day, with only 5 birds among four species. The teachers and other public members still seemed to greatly enjoy the experience, even with so few birds. However, we got our first Lazuli Bunting of the season yesterday, as well as our first American Robin, Orange-crowned Warbler, and Western Scrub Jay today, and it was very nice to see so many new species for this banding season. Breakdown of newly banded birds, 9/12 Black-capped Chickadee - 2 Gray Catbird - 2 MacGillervrey's Warbler - 1 Common Yellowthroat - 1 Wilson's Warbler - 4 Black-headed Grosbeak - 1 Lazuli Bunting - 1 Song Sparrow - 1 Breakdown of newly banded birds, 9/13 Western Scrub Jay - 1 American Robin - 2 Orange-crowned Warbler - 1 Wilson's Warbler - 1 We actually caught 6 AMROs, but two self-released before we got to the net and two more had tongued themselves fairly badly and had stressed enough in the net, so were released unprocessed. As well, a Nashville Warbler was seen at the park late in the morning on 9/12.
