Today we had our first ever Western Tanagers on our oriole feeders in SW

Hey, all.
The last time I went birding with Bob was Mar. 30, 2014. It was a totally
serendipitous thing; we just bumped into each other (Sondra & Bob Jr. were
there too) at the Cottonwood Marsh boardwalk in Boulder County.
I asked Bob what was new, and he wryly remarked that that day was the

I'm super excited to have seen a male Lazuli Bunting at my seed feeder this
afternoon, just long enough for me to grab binoculars and see it clearly
before it flew away. I've never even seen one before! The next bird that
visited was a female Red-Winged Blackbird which I've seen before but
Your question shows why you were such a damn good reporter in your newsman

MacGillivray’s,
In my case, my job having been essential, I wouldn't have had the
opportunities to bird all day, covid or no covid. Thankfully, the reason
I'm home now is that I retired this year! So while I can't enjoy any of
the travel I had planned, by god, I can sit home and bird!

Hi all,
After getting great recordings of the Mexican Whip-poor-will last night
(without using any playback), I camped farther up the road and got up this
morning to bird Custer County. Highlights were a male American Redstart
below the dam at Lake Deweese and a male Hepatic Tanager on Greenwood
Dave Cameron's post got me thinking: "Granted, this is the first spring I've
been home every day, and the yard has been good for birds all along, but this
year is so crazy, I have to pinch myself."
I agree! This spring is the best I can remember along the populated Front Range

Granted, this is the first spring I've been home every day, and the yard
has been good for birds all along, but this year is so crazy, I have to
pinch myself.

day.
Just now:
Plumbeous Vireo
Black and white Warbler
I hear from birders in the field that all Watson Lake rare warblers continue
this Friday morning Additional warblers not on my original list include

The whip-poor-will put on a great show last night (5/14). It started
calling around 8:24 and called continously for about 25 minutes. It
eventually flew down to the roadside and began calling right next to us. At
one point flew a circle over our heads. Then the wind picked up and it
