This morning I drove over to Holcim Wetlands east of Florence after birding on private property in the area so didn't arrive until mid-morning. I first found a Green Heron then 3 Black-crowned Night-Herons. At least one of the Black-crowned Night-Herons was an adult and one a juvenile. Given

[cobirds] Rose-breasted Grosbeak at my water feature! (Lakewood, Jefferson)

A first year male showed up briefly at about 8:30 AM along with an unusual number of other birds at my little waterfall (yard bird #84). I had never seen this plumage before; the first year male is well illustrated in the Nat Geo Field Guide. The irony is that I have yet to see the commoner

[cobirds] re: TRICOLORED HERON @ Holcim Wetlands, Fremont Co.

I went to Holcim Wetlands this early evening (14 June 2013).  I saw the adult Tricolored Heron that SeEtta found earlier today.  I got some more photos as well, and will of course submit documentation to the CBRC, for this CBRC Review species.  The bird was feeding on the west side of the pond.

I drove back to Holcim Wetlands this evening to look for the Least Bittern I believe I saw this morning and try to get a photo of the TRICOLORED HERON using my 400 mm telephoto lens instead of my 70-300. I ran into a local birder and his son who is also an avid birder. They had seen the heron
