Hello, Birders.
It's an annual tradition for (some of the zanier of) us in Colorado: We
assemble early, extremely early, on the morning of Tuesday, Aug. 12, the
peak morning for the Perseid meteor shower and the peak time of year for
night migration by Colorado's birds. A full description of
Saturday 8/23/14 8am
Join the Arkansas Valley Audubon Society (AVAS) for it's annual field trip
to Lake DeWeese and the Wet MT. Valley in Westcliffe, CO. Go to
www.socobirds.org for trip details.

Birders,
Practically every year recently, a sub-adult white morph Reddish Egret has
shown up in late summer at John Martin Reservoir or nearby bodies of water
like Lake Hasty or Verhoeff Lake in Bent County. In fact, I think many
Colorado birders with this species on their state list got there
A singing Eastern Wood-Pewee was just north of Site 1 in west Tamarac Ranch
in the late afternoon. Also numerous Red-headed Woodpecker fledglings
getting into tussles with Eastern Kingbirds. Two singing Bell's Vireos. And
(sigh . . .) my first Autumn Meadowhawk of the year.
