Found out yesterday that rosy-finches have been showing up at a friend's bird feeders, in Divide (Teller Co), for about a month. They didn't think it was important enough to notify me; figuring they had bored me with their misc feeder bird photos and updates enough. J
Yesterday and today, I found both gray-crowned (tephrocotis, littoralis & dawsoni races) and brown-capped rosy-finches in a flock of about 40-60. No black rosy-finches were seen. Birder's are welcome to view these birds from the road (Joshua Rd), west of the house. Several feeders are in the back (south side). The rosy-finches like to roost in the large ponderosa nearest to Joshua road, west of the house. The little "A" on the map link below is essentially the back yard of the house and the location of the feeders. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q <http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=101+stephanie+p l,+80814&sll=39.021928,-105.051812&sspn=0.01382,0.014806&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=1 01+Stephanie+Pl,+Divide,+Teller,+Colorado+80814&z=17> &source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=101+stephanie+pl,+80814&sll=39.021928,-105.0518 12&sspn=0.01382,0.014806&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=101+Stephanie+Pl,+Divide,+Teller, +Colorado+80814&z=17 To use this map page and get directions to this home, simply use the Directions link on the left and type in your address.
