Dear Cobirders, After a wonderful and tiring day of birding that included the soaking Walden Ponds walk that resulted in a county record Vermillion Flycatcher and then seeing a Rusty Blackbird at Boulder Reservoir (thanks to Andrew Spencer) I headed to the WOW museum (Lafayette, Boulder County) with my kids. Just as I arrived, Nathan Pieplow called to tell me that Ted Floyd had a Long-billed Curlew at McIntosh Lake. I wished him good luck on the chase and headed into the museum. On the way out of the museum around 6 PM, I head a strange sound, halfway between a flock of Gulls and a Scrub-Jay. I looked up to see a flock of 15 Long-billed Curlews flying over (flying northeast). Then, on the way home --- a First-of-the-Season Swainson's Hawk at Erie Reservoir.
Great Day ...
