Sorry for the late post.
The west side of the San Luis valley (as well as the north) were cold and snow-packed. While the east side seemed more like spring all on the same day. Of note: . 2 pinyon jays at the Sand Dunes entrance gate . Several rough-legged hawks still present, one beautiful dark-morph individual . Monte Vista NWR felt like the middle of winter. Snow-packed and cold.q . Alamosa NWR felt like spring. Not much on the auto-tour, but the 2 mile hike along the Rio Grande was fantastic. Lots of singing song sparrows with a different dialect than I am used to. . Loads of Great Horned Owls on nests. . Saw some SpringParsley (Cymopterus sp.) breaking ground on the east side. fyi Jeff J Jones ( <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]) Teller County - 8500' - Montane Woodlands -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds".
