[cobirds] Cranes. Windsor Reservoir

['Joan Glabach' via Colorado Birds]

We have cranes on the ground for the third night.  Thursday we had 65 spend the 
night and leave about 8:30 am.  Friday was our big night with cranes arriving 
at 4 pm and not leaving until 10am today.  Today we had almost given up when a 
large flight landed and is now settled for the night.  I think there are over 
200 in this one.  In six years living here this is the first time we have been 
sure they stayed all night.

[cobirds] El Paso county --- Red-necked Grebe, 10/17/2015

['Mark Peterson' via Colorado Birds]

COBirders,
I made a quick stop at Big Johnson reservoir around midday today and found a 
RED-NECKED GREBE in the "northeast" corner of the reservoir.  It was not really 
associating with anything else.  Most of the other large grebes were in the 
"northwest" corner.  Nothing else of real note but some increased numbers in 
some of the regular fall duck species.

[cobirds] Eastern Colorado Saturday

[Joey Kellner]

Kathy Mihm-Dunning and I headed out east to see if ANY migrants were about.
Well there WERE some migrants at every stop.

Flagler SWA:
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker - 1
Eastern Phoebe - 1
Blue-headed Vireo - 1
Winter Wren - 1
American Robin - 0, NONE! Zilch! Zippo!
Gray Catbird - 1 (late-ish)
Yellow-rumped Warblers - lots
Wilson's Warbler - 1 late
White-throated Sparrow - 1
Lincoln's Sparrow - 8
Red Crossbill - 3 (a tad odd for the location...no pines in the
area).

Arriba City Park:
Great Horned Owl - 1
Merlin - 1 Taiga race mobbing the Great Horned Owl! At the same time
a 
Richardson's (prairie) Merlin was mobbing the much darker
and slightly 
larger Taiga! Remains of several Eurasian Collard-Doves
found at several 
locations in the park. :-)
Blue-headed Vireo - 1 (yes, two in one day!)
White-throated Sparrow - 1

Private Ranch in Lincoln County:
White-throated Sparrow - 1

Jackson Reservoir State Park (Campground):
White-throated Sparrow - 1

In addition to the above goodies we had good numbers of:
Ruby-crowned Kinglets
Hermit Thrushes
Yellow-rumped Warblers
Orange-crowned Warblers
Dark-eyed Juncos (Pink-sided, Oregon & Slate-colored)
A few sparrows of the genus spizella still present.

So, there ARE migrants finally coming though...better late than never!  :-)

[cobirds] More Sandhill Cranes near CCSP, Arapahoe County

[Mary Keithler]

Hi all,

4-5 large waves of Sandhill Cranes just passed by our house near the SW corner 
of Cherry Creek State Park.  Quite a glorious sight.  They were headed in a 
southeast direction.

Happy migration!

[cobirds] Re: [NATURE-NET] More Cranes, Boulder Co.

[Linda Andes-Georges]

Todd, these birds are just going over us now, about 5-600 as ou said, and 
boomeranging off any thermals that they find. So with all the circling they 
came SW instead, and reached the Lagerman area in a lazy half hour. As the 
groups break up in the thermals and then rejoin in Vs, they make a really 
joyful racket.

[cobirds] CSR. El Paso Co, Saturday

[Steven Brown]

Hi COBirders,

A good arrival of sparrows and Ruby-crowned Kinglets this morning at Clear 
Spring Ranch. Best was my third White-throated Sparrow of the week. Also a 
couple of Sandhill Cranes flew over - but not hundreds, this morning.
Last day for my banding season is tomorrow.

Rough total for banded birds this season at CSR (since 8/1/2015, all at the 
riparian willow-marsh area, near the sod house) - 450 birds.

Notable species counts-
Ruby-crowned Kinglet - 8
Yellow Warbler - 31 (plus several recaptures - some probably local breeders, 
some returning migrants)
Wilson’s Warbler - 57
Orange-crowned Warbler - 7 (plus two recaptures from last year)
Common Yellowthroat - 31
Yellow-rumped Warbler -1
Chestnut-sided Warbler -1
N Waterthrush - 1
Yellow-breasted Chat - 5 (plus several recaptures from previous years)
Gray Catbird - 25
Chipping Sparrow - 72
Song Sparrow - 39
Lincoln’s Sparrow - 11
White-crowned Sparrow - 45 (Gambell’s, 2 Mountain) (two recaptured returns from 
last spring)
White-throated Sparrow - 3

[cobirds] Crane flight in progress, Boulder County

[Ted Floyd]

Hi, all.

Hannah Floyd is bombarding me with texts and photos of cranes flying over 
Boulder County. She's at or near the ballfields at 47th and 
Foothills/Diagonal. If you're in downtown Boulder, they're up there RIGHT 
NOW.

[cobirds] Sandhill Cranes Boulder foothills

[David Waltman]

I left home at dawn and spent all morning in eastern Boulder County trying in 
vain to find Sandhill Cranes.  Ted Floyd in the field and Cheryl at home had to 
listen to my whining about it.  Then, back home at 1 pm, Cheryl yelled from our 
yard, "David, I hear birds!!"  I estimated about 300 seen from my driveway 
looking west most likely over Lefthand Canyon and Olde Stage Road.  I'll be 
able to get an exact count when I look at my photos.  They were progressing 
slowly to the south as they were working on gaining altitude over the foothills 
and forming and reforming blobs and V's.  Love that sound!

[cobirds] Sandhill Cranes, Boulder at 12, then Broomfield at 1230

[Laura Steadman]

Saw about 100 cranes flying south-southeast over the Boulder Humane Society
(~Arapahoe & 55th) at about noon today. Arriving home near the 1st bank
center in Broomfield just now, watched a flock of about 100 catching a
thermal overhead! Maybe the same group. Continued heading south. So cool!

Good Birding,

[cobirds] Ibis at Cottonwood Marsh, Boulder County

[Peter Burke]

CoBirders,
I observed a juvenile Glossy/White-faced Ibis this morning at Cottonwood
Marsh in Boulder County. The bird appeared overall dark to me, with no
noticeable white marks on the face, grayish bill and legs. At that point a
hunter's gun flushed the bird along with many ducks and a few Greater
Yellowlegs.

It briefly landed on an island giving me a chance to see it in close detail
in the morning sunlight. I could tell it had a dark, not red, iris. A few
more gunshots and the bird was gone, but I felt confident it was a Glossy -
based on the dark eye.

Hearing that David Waltman had re-found the bird, I went back for further
study. There's a note in Sibley next to 1st winter White-faced Ibis that
says, "iris red by Feb." I wasn't aware that a juv. White-faced would also
have a dark eye at this time of year... Without that mark to differentiate
the two species, I'm not sure this bird can be identified reliably. I've
updated my eBird list to Glossy/White-faced.

Other late-ish birds on this glorious October day were three Long-billed
Dowitchers at Teller Lake.

Good Birding,
Peter

[cobirds] Boulder Ibis ID

[David Waltman]

Initially I was leaning to White-faced Ibis ID, but after studying my photos 
and field guides I'm leaning to Glossy but not sure.  Before I read Peter 
Burke's most recent email, I too had changed my eBird report from White-faced 
to White-faced/Glossy.  I just don't know.  I don't know if my photos are good 
enough or if it's possible to ID this bird, but here's a link with three photos:

[cobirds] Chico Basin Yesterday (El Paso Co, Pueblo Co)

['Dan Stringer' via Colorado Birds]

Friday 10-16 I visited Chico Basin Ranch (El Paso Co, Pueblo Co), did not 
see anything resembling reported Spraque's Pipits but had some birds of 
interest: A single Bufflehead and flocks of McCown's Longspurs at the lake 
S of headquarters, two Great Horned Owls and a couple of weak-sounding 
Marsh Wrens at the now dried-up headquarters pond, two Loggerhead Shrikes 
and two Mountain Bluebirds along the road. Ravens which shall go 
unidentified. Northern Harriers, Sharp-shinned, Coopers, and 
Red-tailed Hawks (seems like all the Swainson's suddenly vanished). 
Hundreds of White-crowned Sparrows, mostly immature.

The banding station was more active that I'd anticipated, a lone Hermit 
Thrush, Red-naped Sapsucker, a drumming Ladder-backed Woodpecker, Brown 
Creeper, Townsend's Solitaire, lots of Dark-eyed Juncos (Oregon, 
Pink-sided, Slate-colored), Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Orange-crowned Warbler, 
and my highlight bird Cassin's Vireo which had eluded me all year despite 
being seen frequently by others. Wild Turkeys on the road out, fall 
foliage, a day that started with my car heater and ended with air 
conditioning.

[cobirds] Multiple Crane Flocks Over Rabbit Mountain , Boulder County

[Carl Starace]

Between 11 am and 11:50  Sally Swain and I observed four Sandhill Crane
flocks totally a conservative 700 birds.. We had plenty of time to do
counts as each flock circled numerous times above the ridgeline by the
parking area. So sweet.  Carl Starace,Niwot
