Re: [cobirds] Bird Conservancy of the Rockies - Barr Banding Report, 9/20/23

2023-09-21 Thread Preston Sowell
I would encourage folks to take before and after photos of the destruction.
Perhaps at several stations around the area and be sure to mark/GPS the
location. It may be too late to save Barr Lake, but those images could be a
powerful tool for future conservation efforts. It can be hard for the
public to visualize the aftermath when projects are proposed/implemented.

I'd certainly love to see some more studies to help determine more
conclusively how and what affects the well being of birds.

Best of luck out there.

Re: [cobirds] Violet-green Swallows & Human Structures

2022-04-28 Thread Preston Sowell
We had a pair of violet-green swallows nesting in a space between a gutter
and the house for many years in Pine Brook Hills here in Boulder. I suspect
they are still nesting there. It was a great way to mark the Spring. In
fact the first one showed up around our new home (also in Pine Brook Hills)
last thursday.

Re: [cobirds] El Paso county Dickcissel and rattlesnake uppdate

2020-05-31 Thread Preston Sowell
All, if anyone encounters a snake that they feel is a danger/problem in the 
Boulder area, please feel free to contact me. I am trained to handle 
rattlesnakes and I am called on to remove and relocate them from people's 
yards at least a couple times a year.
