2015-12-11 Thread Jeff J Jones
This is the 4th year in a row that I have had a Northern Goshawk winter in my neighborhood. I was first alerted to it calling at sunrise back in 2012 outside my home office every morning. This year, it is putting on quite a show for me. Most days I am in my home office where the entire eastern

Hi COBirders, Made a quick stop at Big Johnson reservoir this afternoon as I came back into town and although there was not a lot on the reservoir there were four LONG-TAILED DUCKs.  Three of which were together and the fourth was off by itself.  The only other semi-notable thing were two

Good day all! I'm a little behind on getting this post out but thought I'd write it nonetheless. I tried on Tuesday to re-find the previously posted Pacific Loon and Red-necked Grebe at the Rawhide Power Plant. That was the really windy day and it turned out to be a really silly thing to do.
