A running club of 10 members from Golden ranging from 8-14 years with their leader. Weather: Good cloud cover intermittently, winds mainly from the ESE, good visibility with some haziness. For specific hourly weather data go to Hawkcount.org. Raptor Observations: The 1st migrant was the CH at 8:38 AM MST which was the only real close bird just east of the watch. A few of the Osprey came low enough to be visible with the naked eye – good binocular looks. We had 32 BW today and according to Steve the highest this watch has ever had in a day is 35. Non-migrant raptors: Golden Eagle 5 all flying West, RT 1-3, TV 3, AK flying east. Non-raptor Observations: Yellow-rumped Warbler (Audubon's) 1, Western Meadowlark heard, White Pelican 15, Say's Phoebe 2, Spotted Towhee 1, White-throated Swift, Barn Swallow, Violet-green Swallow, Tree Swallow, Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay 3, Mourning Dove 4, Northern Flicker heard, Common Raven 3, Great Blue Heron 1. Kathie Moses had never seen a BW and wanted to see one and after a while wanted to find a hawk before Steve did – she was able to combine both ambitions in one bird! Thanks to Andrew for helping and aging the GE with his scope, and a heartfelt thanks to Steve for finding and IDing most of the raptors, without whom we would have had a meager count indeed. Predictions: The forecast is for rain at 44% risk after 9 AM MDT, 72% after 12 noon and 82% chance of rain after 3 PM with a chance of thunder after 12 noon – with winds from the N>NNE – so the count could be ended early. Report submitted by DAVID HILL () Dinosaur Ridge - Denver Field Ornithologists information may be found at: http://www.dfobirds.org More site information at hawkcount.org: https://hawkcount.org/siteinfo.php?rsite=123 Site Description: Dinosaur Ridge is the only regularly staffed hawk watch in Colorado and is the best place in the world to see migrating Ferruginous Hawks. Hawk watchers may see 17 species of migrating raptors; and it is an excellent site to see rare dark morph buteos including Broad-winged hawk, Swainson’s hawk, Ferruginous hawk, Rough-legged hawk and Red-tailed Hawk. Other raptors we see include Golden and Bald Eagles, Northern harrier, Osprey, Peregrine Falcons, Prairie Falcons, Cooper's and Sharp-shinned Hawks, American Kestrels, Merlin, and Turkey Vultures. Northern Goshawk is uncommon but also counted each season. Non-raptor species include Rock Wren, Bushtit, Western Bluebird, Sandhill Crane, White-throated Swift, American White Pelican, and Dusky Grouse. Birders of any skill level are always welcome. The hawk watch at Dinosaur Ridge is staffed

[cobirds] Solitary Sandpiper and White-faced Ibis - Belmar, Jeffco
Cobirders, I really should come to Belmar Park in Lakewood more often, especially now that I moved 9 minutes north. Great for birding while walking my Maybelle too. Anyway, tree-lined pond to NW had the Ibis and the Sandpiper was in the main pond of the WSW peninsula. Usual suspects also around to the tune of 28 spp. so far. More trail to walk...

[cobirds] Bird Book Sale
Denver Audubon will hold a Sale of nature books -- mostly bird books -- this Saturday and Sunday at the Audubon Nature Center at Waterton. It will open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Urling and I donated 175 books from our nature library -- surely one or two will appeal to you.

[cobirds] Parula /yellow throated warbler, Boulder
I went to the area described by Nathan and others on the Boulder Creek just east of 17th St. With some time and persistence and luck I saw the northern Parula and the yellow throated warbler, both with really excellent views people. People also noted how many other birds are in that area and it’s true, it’s just filled with a fun variety of birds. I was joined by Edie and Susan for part of the time and it was fun to have extra eyes.

[cobirds] Denver Field Ornithologists monthly program tonight at 7 PM!
DFO presents "Birdsong and Habitats: updates from DFO-funded avian research" via Zoom webinar Monday, April 24 at 7 PM. Register here: https://dfobirds.org/Programs.aspx You will receive a link to the Zoom webinar. Two researchers will share their work. Leah Crenshaw is a grasslands researcher and master's student at the University of Northern Colorado. She is analyzing grassland birdsong to determine the effect of the build environment on breeding success. Olivia Taylor is a student researcher at the University of Colorado Boulder. Her work measures the effects of geographic isolation on differences in song between populations of Black-capped Chickadees as a means to understand how isolation influences birdsong evolution. As always, this program is free and open to all. This is the last Zoom webinar of DFO's annual cycle. Programs will resume in August. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
