[cobirds] Mississippi Kites, Morgan and Washington Counties
Hi all, Will Anderson and I did a little birding on the northeast plains this morning. Will saw a Mississippi Kite over the dam at Prewitt, and we both saw a pair of adult kites in the town of Brush, along highway 71 about five blocks south of Interstate 76. I was unaware that kites had extended their summer range into Morgan County, but from eBird reports it seems they've been around in Fort Morgan and Brush for a few years now. I thought I'd mention our sighting in case other people are in the area and can confirm nesting.

[cobirds] Evening Grosbeaks, Jefferson County
Hi, Sorry for the late post, I meant to get this out last night but I was having a bad headache. Anyways yesterday I hiked Staunton State Park and along the Staunton Ranch Trail, access it from Davis Meadow Parking Lot, I found a flock of about 7 *Evening Grosbeaks,* along the Ranch trail. They were moving around a lot, but I found them in the stretch from the trailhead at the parking lot and the Historic Cabins trail intersection. At that intersection was a *Canada Jay*, which can be found at the park. The Grosbeaks proved cooperative and even were hoping about on the trail. I found them first from their calls. One another note, there is a sign along Staunton Ranch trail letting you know you are in Park County, which helps me divide up my check lists easier. Good birding, Brian Johnson Englewood CO -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
