[cobirds] Dickcissel's/Larimer County

COBirders, I just had multiple singing Dickcissel’s at the intersection of Larimer County Road 80 & 19. I also heard and saw several more west of 19 on Rd. 80. This has been a very reliable spot for them in past years in Larimer. --- Rachel Hopper Ft. Collins. CO
