[cobirds] American Bittern on RBA

American Bittern is not normally considered rare and on the RBA. But the recent report of one in Archuleta county was a first for the county so I included it on the RBA. When a bird is a new county record and I know it, then I include it on the RBA and indicate it is a country record. We do have

[cobirds] Pacific Loon still at Big Johnson, El Paso County

First, thanks to Aaron Driscoll and Mark Peterson. Without their posts, we may not have noticed the differences between the Common and Pacific Loons on the reservoir this morning. Not being in breeding plumage, the telltale black chin strap was a great ID help on the Pacific Loon. Also on
