The ROTE is still at Barr Lake State Park. It is on a sandbar with pelicans in
the far NW corner. Probably best viewed from out from RMBO's office.
Good birding,

The hummingbird migration numbers, though I've had little time to watch,
appear to be much heavier and more diverse here at our house (4 miles east
of Foothills in central Boulder Cnty) than in the previous 5 years. (We
lived in town before that).
I've had (I can hear 'em!) 4 species almost every
Hi all,
Hopefully this isn't the second time on this message (sent the other query
to the old cobi...@cfo-link.org email). I'm a former CO birder who will be
back in state for a few days this coming week in Salida and very briefly in
Pueblo.
I've driven through Salida a number of times before

I saw dozens of nighthawks about 3 pm today (just ahead of our torrential
rain) heading south over Louisville just above the tree tops!
Even though they were flying erratically, they were gradually heading
south. Finally, I stopped on Pine St.
so that I could count them. I counted at least 80
The tern continues at 5:30 on the right of the two islands as seen from the

We are having greater numbers in general, including black-chinned and
especially rufous. I was attributing it to loss of habitat at High Park fire
as we are about 10 miles south of the burn area.

COBirders,
I will be compiling the lifetime county lists this month so please have all
your updates to me by Friday, August 3rd. I will not be doing the horizontal
lists this month.
Look along the left side of the following page to find links to forms and the
lists.
Cobirders,
While looking back through the messages posted about the Royal Tern, I do
not see where it has been mentioned that this is only the third documented
sighting of this species in the state. So, if you are newer to birding this
is one that you might want to make an effort to go see,
COBirders,
Yesterday, Bill Maynard and I did a follow-up survery for Black Rails on the
TNC leased Brett Gray Ranch. Access by arrangement only. We were unable to
detect any Black Rails. Unfortunately, the ranch has received almost no rain
all summer and is extremely dry. One of the large

Last night we were awakened by very loud bird calls and sounds of
wings/scuffling just outside our bedroom windows by a very unusual droning

Hi all,
I saw the bird in question at Barr Lake this evening, around 8pm. It was in
the same general location as had been mentioned in earlier postings by
Christian Nunes and Norm Lewis (on the sandbars in the middle of the
reservoir).
One thing I wanted to add - I got there a little after 7pm
I also observed a smaller number of Common Nighthawks tonight, though at
about 8pm. By the time I was able to get into my yard to look for them,
all I saw were 10 birds heading southeast but likely missed some. These
could be part of Norma's group as there were strong thunderstorms in the
