[cobirds] Boulder Co., Baseline Reservoir Caspian Tern, etc.

My phone has been ringing off the hook this weekend, but it's mostly just been Peter Gent reporting juicy birds. I got the message a little while ago that he had found a CASPIAN TERN at Baseline Reservoir. I ran out to see it, and was rewarded with nice looks at the tern plus a good smattering

Hello birders, I am a native Oregonian and recent Oregon State University college graduate. I am now (as of a few days ago!) living near Hayden, CO (Routt County) for a seasonal job. I am very interested in not only learning good birding locations, but also meeting up with other birders. I also

[cobirds] Weld Larimer Ctys, May 6-7

Hi everyone, Jen Turner and I did some area birding starting yesterday afternoon up until midday today, and although we didn't have any earth-shattering sightings, I thought I'd mention what we did find. We headed out to Lower Latham/Beebe Draw yesterday around 6pm, and on our way out we

[cobirds] Bent County landbirds 5/7/12

Birders, I sandwiched some brief land bird stops between my work sites today. Nothing quite earth-moving, but I am sure some people will find useful information or food for thought. Van's Grove: One molting male Summer Tanager. Some of you may know that I do quite a bit of Atlas work for

[cobirds] Stearn's Lake (Boulder co) - Red-necked Pharalopes

Just now (6:30pm), I'm looking at a good gathering of shorebirds in the small pond across from Stearn's Lake. Some 12+ Wilson's and 5 Red-necked Pharalopes. Also two Dowitchers (possibly Long-billed), a Solitary Sandpiper and an un-IDed Calidris. Blue and Green-winged Teals also present with

[cobirds] Valco Ponds in Pueblo (Sunday) 5/6 (Black-throated Blue Warbler)

Lin Lilly tired to post this a couple of times. -- High winds and cool (59° F) temperatures kept the birds down. I did, however, have a Black-throated Blue Warbler on the trail next to the bluffs at the 2nd power line crossing and a Peregrine working the reverse slope of

[cobirds] Weld County - Severance, Crow Valley, grasslands

Nancy and I birded Weld County today (Monday), including Crow Valley, with the hope that the rainy weather would have created a fallout of warblers.  No such luck.  But we did have a good day of birding. Our first stop was the wetland a half mile south of CO14 on WCR23 (Severance).  If anyone

[cobirds] Summer Tanager, Rose-breasted Grosbeak Garfield Cty, +Spring Park migrants, Eagle Cty

Hi all, Monday in the Roaring Fork Valley: Bright, sunny early morning gave way to snow, hail and moderately heavy rain this afternoon, clearing by this evening. Looks like quite a lot of fresh snow higher up, above 9,500 feet. Decidedly chilly down here ! Just as the rain set in, the

[cobirds] Upland Sandpiper (?) - Adams County

While looking for Burrowing Owls at the prairie dog town 3.4 mi east of 96th and Tower on the DIA Owl Loop, I saw a bird I didn't recognize. It was on a prairie dog mound in the distance, I thought it might be an owl until I looked more closely with binoculars and camera zoom. After consulting
