Correction. I’m told this is a bright juvenile black bellied plover. My
education continues.

DFO visited Gilpin County yesterday 9/13 to see what we could find. A few
species were good for Gilpin as per eBird. At the cemeteries along Upper
Apex Road west of Central City we saw a Western Kingbird (only Sept Gilpin
occurrence in eBird), and a Sage Thrasher (only three prior eBird records,

Would you please clarify us about your segment/interview re Chico banding
tomorrow?
The only conference I can find happened this past weekend, so I'm uncertain
as to what I should register for.
Thanks for your help. I hope to get out this week!

Actually, I posted this observation on Friday, September 10. Not sure why
it didn't show up here until Tuesday, September 14.

What an exciting day! We caught two rarities today: a Nashville Warbler and
a Philadelphia Vireo. We also caught our first white-crowned sparrow the
season, and boy are they definitely royalty for a reason. Another slower
day with only 29 captures, but the variety made up for it for sure! Thank
Well the weather changed a bit but our capture rates remained the same
(fairly low!). We did have some nice variety, including a Gray Flycatcher,
a few Green-tailed Towhees and a lovely Townsend's Warbler. 25 newly banded
birds of 9 species; here are the daily totals:

Birders,
The immature male Costa's Hummingbird in my yard in Las Animas since
9/10 is still present this afternoon. It's behavior today has been
different. It has spent a lot of time flycatching high in trees,
sometimes being out of sight for longer periods of time. I'm not sure
whether this
I thought I had already posted this, but I guess I exited it and didn't
save it as a draft woops! Today was pretty interesting, with no captures
our first round, but a surge of captures in our second round. A pleasant
surprise was a hatch-year Sharp-shinned Hawk, and all of our visitors got

Today I was able to take the time to oogle some hummingbirds (both
Hatch-year Calliopes), which was very exciting. On our second round we also
caught a Sharp-shinned Hawk in the net which was fun to show to all of our
visitors. We had a total of 42 captures for the day, with Wilson's Warblers
I had a Chestnut-collared fly by the sand spit about 11am. It was calling as it
flew by. Very distinct call. It was going south. I haven’t relocated it. A
couple other folks happened to be here and it hasn’t been refound. However, I’d
walk the weedy barren fields around the parking lot for the
Foothills Audubon Club hosts Gary Lefko, "The Nunn Guy" at the regular club
meeting. Everyone interested in the Pawnee is welcome to join in, using

Birders,
The immature male Costa's Hummingbird visiting my feeders in Las Animas
just put in it's first appearance of the morning, the fifth day he has
been here.
Visitors are welcome. I prefer if people park in my circular driveway
rather than on rather busy 6th Street.
