Still there as of 3pm, walk the trail south over the river south. Once even
with the second large power pole after the river look east to the private
pond to the little sand bar in the pond.

Re: [cobirds] Veterans Now Free at All CO National Parks!

[Todd Deininger]

As I understand the guidelines you will need to apply for a Veteran ID Card
or some other form of id the shows your status to show at the park.

It is a quick process to apply for the VIC, I did it on my phone the other
night.

The free entrance also applies to Gold Star families.

Juvenile Red-tailed Hawk, check out light western juv. in Sibley. Bands on
tail from Dave's description. Also, no feathered legs that Ferrug would
show.

[cobirds] Mexican Whip-poor-will, East Bear TH, Oak Creek Grade Rd, Femont Co.

[Todd Deininger]

The whip-poor-will put on a great show last night (5/14). It started
calling around 8:24 and called continously for about 25 minutes. It
eventually flew down to the roadside and began calling right next to us. At
one point flew a circle over our heads. Then the wind picked up and it
stopped calling.

[cobirds] 99 TVs heading into Longmont, Boulder County

[Todd Deininger]

As I stepped out the house at 7pm, I had a kettle of *Turkey Vultures *directly
over the house heading east into town. I am pretty sure I saw the fist one
of the group.

Might have to plan my dog walk as the weather warms up tomorrow.

#my2cents - Keep the RBA going. Is someone really going to head out from
Denver to see the horned grebe in San Miguel Co.? The RBA helps us get a
better understanding of the status and distribution of the birds moving
through CO this time of the year.

Re: [cobirds] Subspecies of White-winged Crossbill (and other species) and eBird

[Todd Deininger]

So how do we treat SSp, such as Mallard or American Coot? Yesterday I swung
by LUNA and counted Mallards (
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S41784615), I put them all down as
northern, should I have just left it as Mallard. Same goes with AMCO.
Aren't all our coots red shielded? My recent trip to AZ (
http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S41501896) I accidentally put AMCO
into both boxes, which one should I shift it to?

On another note, where does one find SSp. info that ebird is using. Of late
I have notice the northern House Wren has been popping up on checklists.

[cobirds] Anti Hunting Comment

[Todd Deininger]

According to the Rules of COBirds

"Pro-hunting vs. anti-hunting discussions are not allowed. This does not
prohibit discussions on the status and effects of hunting on a species or
group of species"

I believe Ted Floyd's comment should be removed from the list. I am amazed
that the role hunters have played in the increase in population of water
fowl is not understood.

[cobirds] Eagles, Herons and ebird codes. Longmont Area (Weld & Boulder)

[Todd Deininger]

I saw 20 eagles today SW and SE of Longmont. 2 were immature Golden Eagles
and 13 were immature Bald Eagles.  Two of the adult BE were perched on
their nest. Also, at two different heronries  I had multiple Great Blue
Herons perched in their nests.

What breeding code, if any is this?

Also, *Tundra Swans *are still at Walden Ponds (Boulder).

[cobirds] Palm Warbler & Harris Sparrow, First Creek at DEN Open Space, Denver

[Todd Deininger]

After dropping my wife off at DIA I decided to check out the new open space
in Denver, First Creek at DEN Open Space.  At around 3pm 1.2 miles north on
Buckley where the power lines cross the road I found a western *Palm
Warbler* in the large Cottonwood east of the road with a flock of *House
Finch* and *American Tree Sparrows*.  I continued on to the 2 mile mark and
on the return trip I did not see the Palm Warbler again, but I did not
spend much time looking.

I also found a *Harris Sparrow* east of the light rail track in the trees
next to the creek.

On the morning 10/12 7 of us from Boulder saw 50 Greater Prairie Chickens
and  the Tri-colored Heron at Walden.

My last CO Tri-colored in 2006(?) was at Lower Latham and later saw the
Piping Plover at Clover Basin in Boulder, Co.

[cobirds] McIntosh Lake, Boulder County restricted area

[Todd Deininger]

Hi all, I was talking to one of the city workers today and they have had
some complaints about off trail activity at the lake.  If you bird
McIntosh, please be aware that the area south of the gravel trail is off
limits to the public.  This is on the NW gravel trail that goes from
Mariner Dr./Airport Rd. west. There is no fence or markers, but the giant
map before you get onto the trail is hard to miss.

On another note, I observed an Osprey carrying nesting material to the
tower today.

[cobirds] Baird's Sparrow, Larimer County

[Todd Deininger]

The CR 5 Baird's Sparrow was seen today by at least 6 birders between 7 and
8am .A second bird was heard singing in this area also.

The blue tractor is gone, so head north on CR 5, cross the RR tracks and
then stop just north of the first cattle guard.  The bird was perched and
singing to the west.

Re: [cobirds] Piping Plover update--Sweetwater Lake CLOSED TO HUMAN ACCESS

[Todd Deininger]

Does anyone know if this can be hidden from general view on ebird?  Would
the original lister be able to block public access?

I was under the impression that ebird did not disclose the location of
sensitive species.

[cobirds] Gray Jays, Lake County, 10/17-10/19, and some Pitkin

[Todd Deininger]

The Gray Jays were very active in Lake County this weekend.  I spent the
weekend exploring some 4WD roads with a quick jaunt into Aspen and on every
road I took I came across Gray Jays along side the road.  Total six
different locations across Lake County, plus two in Pitkin County.

Not much in the way of water fowl on the lakes in Lake County, *Common
Merganser* was on most all bodies of water except Crystal Lake (only
shovelers here).  A lone *Clark's Grebe* was on upper Twin Lake.  13 *Western
Grebe*, 7 *Eared Grebe*, 4 *Ruddy Duck*, and 12 *Gadwall *on Turquoise.

On the Pitkin side of Independence Pass a *Northern Goshawk* was soaring
above the peaks.

[cobirds] Parasitic Jaeger, Boulder Res., Boulder Co.

[Todd Deininger]

From distant views it appears to be a Parasitic Jaeger on Boulder Res.
 When I left best views were from the south shore and the jaeger was mostly
floating on the water.  It flew around a few times, but always distant.

Also on the res were *Sabine Gull*, *Common Tern*, and Forester's Tern.
 Next door at Sixmile Res. David Dowell, finder of the jaeger, saw 2 Sabine
Gulls.

 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)

 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] Golden Ponds, Longmont, Boulder Co. and yard birding

[Todd Deininger]

I spent about a hour this morning at Golden Ponds.  I was only able to
spend time around the ponds north of the river.  The willows around the
ponds were most active with *Wilson's Warblers* and Black-capped
Chickadees.  I did manage one *Orange-crowned Warbler * and a few
*Yellow-rumped
Warblers*.  I estimated about 200 Barn Swallows with about 10%
juvenile *Violet-green
Swallows.  *ebird flagged the 8 *Northern Rough-winged Swallow* that were
perched in a small cottonwood between the first two ponds.  It did not flag
the 2 *Evening Grosbecks* that were flying NW into olde town Longmont.

I did find a vireo spuh, but I had no time left to wait for it to come out
in the open.

Around lunch time an imm. *Calliope Hummingbird* made an appearance at the
agastache.  I quickly filled up a feeder, but it ignored it.  Of other
note, very active *Red-breasted Nuthatches*, at least 3, and a small flock
of *Bushtits*.

Bushtits have been very active in NW Longmont this summer.  Between
MacIntosh Res. and south to my house, I have had flocks of 17 (6/24), 39
(7/23), and 19 (7/25).

 Hello, Birders.

 What a splendid CFO convention!

  Here are 25 highlights that quickly come to mind. I’m sure I could
 rattle off 100, but I’d rather hear from you. If you were at the
 convention, what were your highlights? I’ll start us off; you do the rest.
 Here goes:

  *1.* At least 12 Mississippi Kites circling right over our heads in a
 crystal-blue sky. Slacker trip, Columbine Park, Sterling, Logan County,
 Aug. 30.

  *2.* Learning so much from Jon Dunn—for example, how to distinguish
 Colorado’s next Long-toed Stint from just another Least Sandpiper. Keynote
 address, Sterling Ramada, Sterling, Logan County, Aug. 30.

  *3.* More from Jon Dunn—for example, the difference between a bird’s
 specific epithet and species name. Systematics and taxonomy workshop,
 Sterling Ramada, Sterling, Logan County, Aug. 29.

  *4.* On an impossibly still and sunny morning, a field full of sandsage
 and sunflowers, Orchard Orioles and Baltimore Orioles. Fox Ranch field
 trip, Yuma County, Aug. 29.

  *5.* Also at the Fox Ranch, 1 American Redstart, 2 Dickcissels, 3 Least
 Flycatchers, 4 Upland Sandpipers, 5 Clay-colored Sparrows, and 19
 Red-headed Woodpeckers. Fox Ranch field trip, Yuma County, Aug. 29.

  *6.* Ample food and superb company at the kickoff picnic, with
 stimulating comments from Bill Kaempfer, twittering Chimney Swifts, and
 trilling Cheddar Waxwings. Columbine Park, Sterling, Logan County, Aug.
 28.

  *7.* In-your-face stares from a lovely Cassin’s Vireo; also a Northern
 Waterthrush and the meanest, baddest, orneriest Western Wood-Pewee in the
 history of field ornithology. Migrant traps field trip, Last Chance,
 Washington County, Aug. 31.

  *8.* An unbelievably humongous female giant inchneumon (*Megarhyssa
 macrurus*) on the front door of the hotel. Sterling Ramada, Sterling,
 Logan County, Aug. 29.

  *9.* Hundreds of Colorado soldier beetles (*Chauliognathus basalis*), an
 impressive showing, in the bindweed and other flowers. Migrant traps
 field trip, Akron golf course, Washington County, Aug. 31.

  *10.* Along with the soldier beetles, a nifty Gray Flycatcher, a
 Baltimore Oriole and a Brown Thrasher, several Clay-colored Sparrows, and a
 great many Chipping Sparrows. Migrant traps field trip, Akron golf
 course, Washington County, Aug. 31.

  *11.* “COBirds Quotables for $400”—Christian Nunes impersonated Alex
 Trebek, entertaining and educating all of us. Jeopbirdy, Sterling Ramada,
 Sterling, Logan County, Aug. 29.

  *12.* The sight of Topiltzin Martínez wrangling a plains garter snake 
 (*Thamnophis
 radix*); also, fearsome plains harvest-flies (*Tibicen dorsatus*) and
 plains lubbers (*Brachystola magna*) and a nice showing by festive tiger
 beetles (*Cicindela scutellaris*). Fox Ranch field trip, Yuma County,
 Aug. 29.

  *13.* In another wrangling episode, the spectacle of Alicia Gamble and
 Topiltzin Martínez chasing down a plains leopard frog (*Lithobates blairi*),
 while frugivorous robins, waxwings, starlings, and a Swainson’s Thrush
 worked a berry-laden mulberry tree. Slacker trip, Columbine Park,
 Sterling, Logan County, Aug. 30.

  *14.* With Christy Carello at a Mexican restaurant in town, an inspiring
 “student mixer” and a whole lot of chips and salsa. Mi Ranchito,
 Sterling, Logan County, Aug. 29.

  *15.* Another Christy Carello initiative, the edifying Saturday
 afternoon paper sessions; Lauryn Benedict’s presentation on duetting by
 Colorado songbirds was fascinating to me. Sterling Ramada, Sterling,
 Logan County, Aug. 30.

  *16.* House Sparrows—that’s right, House Sparrows—duetting outside the
 hotel; we learned from Lauryn Benedict that House Sparrow pairs sing duets,
 so I went outside and confirmed this with audio recordings. Sterling
 Ramada, Sterling, Logan County, Sept. 1.

  *17.* During the break between the paper sessions, chocolate-glazed
 donut holes with sprinkles; I think maybe they have crack in them?? Sterling
 Ramada, Sterling, Logan County, Aug. 30.

  *18.* On the drive back west with David Gillilan and Jon Dunn, a chance
 encounter with David Leatherman and Bill Kaempfer’s “departure trip”;
 Franklin’s Gulls and Least Terns galore. Timnath Reservoir, Larimer
 County, Sept. 1.

  *19.* Wonderful vendors; I confess, I found myself particularly
 attracted to Glenn Walbek’s table, but all of the vendors had great items
 and information. Sterling Ramada, Sterling, Logan County, Aug. 29–30.

  *20.* Reflections at the banquet by Ron Ryder Award recipient Catherine
 Ortega on the various influences in her life, among them conventioneer and
 nonagenarian Bob Spencer. Sterling Ramada, Sterling, Logan County

[cobirds] Baird Sparrow, Logan County

[Todd Deininger]

Some CFO field trips have found a Bairds Sparrow.

Will try and get details soon.
