The DFO group came to Pueblo today. Charles Thornton-Kolbe led two car loads of birders from the Denver Area, and a few other birders from Colorado Springs and the Pueblo Area also joined in. We birded the Sunset Park subdivision in Pueblo, then Pueblo City Park, Pueblo Reservoir, Rock Canyon, and Pueblo West. It was windy (as usual, it seems like), though we found a lot interesting birds, that have been around off and on this winter.
Here are the highlights: ** *Sunset Park subdivision:* White-winged Dove - 50-60 ** *Pueblo Reservoir:* Greater Scaup - 6 Surf Scoter - 1 female Barrow's Goldeneye - male and female Double-crested Cormorant - 3 Thayer's Gull - 3 juveniles Lesser Black-backed Gull - 3 adults, 2 first/second year GLAUCOUS-WINGED GULL - 1 first year Glaucous Gull - 1 first/second year Great Black-backed Gull - 1 adult Curve-billed Thrasher - 2 Canyon Towhee - 5 Lapland Longspur - 15 ** *Rock Canyon, below Pueblo Reservoir dam:* Killdeer - 1 ICELAND GULL - 1 first year Hairy Woodpecker - 1 Black Phoebe - 1 Say's Phoebe - 1 American Pipit - 4 Yellow-rumped Warbler - 4 ** *Pueblo West:* Scaled Quail - 10 Curve-billed Thrasher - 1 -- Brandon Percival Pueblo West, CO --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
