[cobirds] bird information

Hi all, This is Bill Maynard. We met at the Colorado Springs Acorn Woodpecker spot. Before I forget, a friend just called and said he has a flock of 200 Bohemian Waxwings along Highway 115 near the turn for Martindale Campground. The flock should be around the junipers feeding on the berries
