Hello Co-birders: When I returned from the CFO Conference in Alamosa, May 31,
I was thrilled to see a Black-headed Grosbeak (male) working on my empty suet

Center)
by Meredith McBurney. This eastern visitor was clearly the bird of the
week at the station. I photographed the bird.

Hello Cobirds,
Sol Miller and I birded Crow Valley, Prewitt, and Bebee Draw today (5/25).
Our first stop was Crow Valley (Weld County), which for the most part was
