half an hour later.

Highlights today included our first hawk of the season (a young male
Sharp-shinned) and a somewhat senior citizen Blue Jay (we banded him as an
adult in 2012). Here's the breakdown of the 54 new birds:
Sharp-shinned Hawk 1
Hammond's Flycatcher 2
Dusky Flycatcher 1
Blue Jay 1, banded 9/2/12!
Good afternoon, friends!
i was out in Cherry Creek SP, just across Belleview from the “neighborhoods” —
Prairie Dog Town. I thought I saw what looked like a Says Phoebe fly to the
top of a low bush. It was almost immediately joined by another — definitely NOT
SAPH. This one was had a pretty

The Nelson’s sparrow reported yesterday and this morning continues right

Thanks for reporting it!
Good birding,

Thanks for all your help, everybody. Not sure why my app doesn’t want to show
me thrushes. But no wonder I wasn’t finding it in my books. I was in the
totally wrong section, trying to make it a sparrow! LOL> Still lots to learn.

When dead birds are found, it's best to freeze them in a bag, after
recording details of place, date, etc. Then notify the Denver Museum
of Nature and Science. They'll do a detailed necropsy, check for all kinds
of things - parasites, etc.
Then contact Jeff Stephensons, collections manager
at 303
Looking at it more carefully I agree with Joe, and David’s agreement.
As with most things, the best way to get an answer on the internet is not to
ask a question, but to post the wrong answer. Murphy’s law.

I've never seen more than a family of Swainson's Hawks at a time, so I was
surprised to encounter a dozen+ Swainson's Hawks over Holly Park in
Centennial (Arapahoe County) this morning. From a distance, I took them for
Turkey Vultures, the only raptors I see riding thermals in flocks locally.
Bob,
That's a bummer. If you have a moment, please consider submitting a report
here:
https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/southwest-avian-mortality-project .
iNaturalist is trying to collect data on the bird die-off event that took
place earlier this month. Might be connected, might not.
A friend, who is not a birder and not making eBird or cobirds reports, showed
me a photo of three Woodhouse’s Scrub Jays at his feeder in northwest Boulder
(Dakota Ridge neighborhood, near the intersection of Broadway and Highway 36).
I haven’t seen many there in that area so wanted to report
Appears to be a Hermit Thrush, based on dark markings on chest and lack of
buff on face.

Appears to be a Swainson's Thrush, which belongs to the same family as
Robins here in America do. The other one of these that you will run into
more commonly is the Hermit Thrush which can be distinguished from
Swainson's by its rust-colored tail.
Hope that is helpful!
Happy birding,
Hi
I just got a report, including a photo, of a dead Yellow-throated Vireo, from a
friend living in Denver

Currently photographing two juvenile Sabine’s Gulls at Aurora Reservoir.
Incredibly confiding - only feet from the shore line. Anyone interested go to
East parking Lot and come up stairs toward The Reservoir. They have either
been on the shore just below the stairs or towards the groups of
COBirders,
It looks like Sunday morning should bring some stronger turnover of birds
with a concentrating wind pattern into the Front Range of CO from Boulder
south through Pueblo right up against the mountains/foothills.
There will likely be turnover occurring in the rest of eastern CO, but no
