I should have added- Very small tern. I could lose it in the swallows for a
second before spotting them again.

Just before sunset I was checking out the pond just north of 76 at Clear
Creek Valley Park. I saw two terns hunting (hovering, diving) for about
25-30 minutes from about 20-50 feet away (sometimes flying a but further).
I'm not the most familiar with terns in general so I spent the whole time
Just a note that you, Ted, reported fireflies on June 9-10, 2017, according
to the search function on this august list. So they are early but have been
early before!

Possibly a Blue Jay mimicking (poorly in this case) a hawk? I can't tell
you how many times they've thrown me off.

Heidi,
I realize this won't be consistent with the hawk-like bird you saw, but is
it possible you were hearing a Red-breasted or White-breasted Nuthatch
calling from the same tree? When I read the descriptions "dog toy" and
"like a monkey", that's the first vocalization that came to mind without
oh my gosh, thank you all so much for the possibilities and knowledge of
the group! I wish i had taken an audio so I can confirm, but I'm leaning
towards the Cooper's Hawk. I'll be keeping my ears open to see if it
returns.
Thanks again to everyone, always fun learning new things!!!

Hi CoBirders
I saw an American Dipper just before 10 am on the west side of tle Lowell
Blvd, bridge over Clear Creek. It was on the wood jammed on the rocks below
the bridge. I saw it well and for about 15 mins. The bill was black, This
bird show no white edges to any feathers. Wings and head
I should have waited 5 minutes to write. The fledglings are indeed scraping
for food. Both were out doing this a moment ago.

There are two pairs of Spotted Towhees nesting in or near my Centennial
(Arapahoe County) yard.
One pair has been feeding a fledgling since at least May 21. I've
suspected, but hadn't confirmed that there were actually two fledglings.
Today, I saw both. They're now foraging on their own,
Sounds much like the male Cooper's Hawks that are currently making a lot of
similar racket in our neighborhood.

Perhaps a juvenile hawk or great horned owl. If you look up the juvenile great
horned owl’s call, that might fit. You can probably tell a juvenile great
horned owl from a hawk so if you can find other juvenile calls. Good luck!
