I saw this bird about 8:30AM today (5/10). Once was on the left branch of the
trail past the bridge. The second was just south of the parking lot near the
lilac. It was about 10 feet from me about 8-10 ft off the ground.

Last night I was walking my dogs and a flock of about 30 nighthawks passed
overhead, heading SW. Five minutes later about 6 swifts came by. I didn't
have binos. I assume they were Chimney Swifts.

There were lots of ibis, willets, avocets, and a few dowitchers, yellow
legs and stilts. But I was there a couple weeks ago and there was nothing
out there. Those are my only 2 experiences at Boyd.

Interesting about the juncos. I live west of Loveland on the Big

Arvind,
I live in the lower Big Thompson Canyon just a few miles from you. I
haven't witnessed Red-breasted Nuthatchs nesting here, but they are a year
round resident at my feeders. White-breasted are also year round and
Pygmys usually in the winter. I saw a Pygmy going into a hole
I saw hundreds of cormorants today! Lot's of pelicans & a few Mountain
Bluebirds on the fence posts near the south entrance.

We have them in the Big Thompson canyon. They showed up this summer at
5580 ft. Long time (decades) neighbors say they have never seen them here
before.

Dippers have been singing a lot in the last week or so along the Big
Thompson River. Part of the river is iced over, but there is still alot of
open water. We seem to have a couple pairs in our area.
I watched a Brown Creeper creeping across the ground for about 10 yards at
my home. There

Interesing behavior. I'd not heard of that. I've had really good luck
with decals on the windows to keep the bird strikes down. Something like
these:

The other thing is we live out in the boonies and I'm not aware of anybody
nearby that has turkeys (they may though). A domestic may have had to walk
a long way to join our gang. Could be though.

At noon today I found an adult male Common Loon at Pinewood. It was at the
south end near and sometimes inside the orange floating barriers. Someone
had found two yesterday as reported on ebird. I could not get a picture.

I posted this last month. Is this what your bird looked like? This one was
in my yard in a group of 20 turkeys.

I've been seeing a lot of Cassin's Finches at my place in the Big Thompson
canyon. Usually they are a rare occurrence. Today I saw about 20, with only
2 red males. We have lots of ash seeds up here and I have several feeders.

I had a pair singing on the Big Thompson in Larimer County a couple days
ago too! What a great sound.

I've had about a dozen Red Crossbills at my tray feeder the last couple
days. Several males & females. What a wonderful site! We are at about 5600
feet right on the river in the lower canyon.

I've had them every day since April 11th. Usually around 20, sometimes 40.
I'm in the Big Thompson canyon west of Loveland, East of Drake. Looks like
they are eating sunflower chips.

I watched a pair of Blue Grosbeaks today at Dixon Lake gleaning something
from a small elm (I think) near the gate at the north entrance. When I
looked at the leaves of the elm it seemed like at least 3 different
insects/diseases were making a mess of the leaves. So I'm not sure what
they were

I just had a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak at my tray feeder here on the Big
Thompson. I usually get an adult male during migration. Black-headed
Grosbeaks nest in the area.
