Hello Fellow Birders,
I have received an official response from CPW concerning use of SWAs for
birding, hiking, etc. This came from their Communication Center in response to
my inquiry about being allowed onto properties that do not allow fishing, if
all I have is a fishing license. I have
This raises a question about migration 'triggers,' so I'll ask it:
I've read in the past that what drives Northbound migrants to start
migrating is not the weather, which is too variable, but the number of
hours of daylight. That was asserted as the birds' sense of calendar, and
it makes
For the past 15 minutes I’ve been watching either two adults and a
fledgling or an adult and two fledgling Black Phoebes (and maybe 2 adults
too) across Carr Street from the east end of the pond. I’d seen the pond
bird catching a few flies near 4 pm and the immediately flying east across
the road
This is not fully comprehensive but it covers a lot. There's another place
where a lot of tracking projects are collated but I can't remember what it
is at the moment. It's Friday afternoon :)

Hi Scott
Know of an aggregator website that has all project maps of all tagged bird

I'll just add a couple notes on these "early" shorebirds. They are right
on time, like others have noted. The summer solstice is when southbound
birds start arriving (yup, June 21 or so). There are always a few birds
where you're not sure if they are going south or just didn't go to the
arctic
There have been some satellite tagged shorebirds heading south for a few weeks.
Just on schedule. As Joe mentioned, they are often birds that failed to nest
Because the time frame for nesting in much of their preferred arctic habitat
is very short, if a first nest fails the adults often
Although it's hard to be sure, my guess is that those juicy shorebirds were
moving SOUTH, having failed at nesting up north somehow. I presume they were
adults, but let us know if they were younger, please.

Joey Negreann and I also saw a handful of willets at Cherry Creek State Park
along with two or more least sandpipers and a western sandpiper. Feels like
just yesterday shorebirds were moving north.

Two weeks I was camping at Vega Lake State Park and saw 2 Lewis'
Woodpeckers. One was on a fence post maybe 10 feet from the dirt road.
Also there were a number of Violet-Green swallows, plus a family of
Mountain Bluebirds. As a recent transplant to CO, the bluebirds were a
special treat.
