There are several good birds I have observed over the past 3 days in Larimer County, they include: Great Egret 6/10 and 6/11 - 1 bird seen at Kechter Pit (Gravel Pit on the SW side of I-25 and Harmony) Snowy Egret 6/11 - 1 bird seen at Kechter Pit. White-rumped Sandpiper 6/11 - 1 bird seen at Strauss Cabin on the north side of Strauss Cabin Road just north of Harmony. This is the same area that Steve Mlodinow saw one a week or two ago. I am assuming this is a different bird as I have been checking that location fairly consistently for the past month trying to find one there as the habitat looks good. Caspian Tern 6/10 and 6/11 - 2 birds yesterday and 1 seen today at Kechter Pit, Nick Komar saw one diving in a small pond today just east of I-25 directly across from this area. Red-eyed Vireo 6/11 - 1 singing on private property while Nick and I were doing a bird survey. This property is in Laporte and it has a lot of great riparian habitat next to the Poudre River. Yellow-throated Warbler 6/9 - Singing in a row of trees 100 yards south of Cattail Pond. Ovenbird 6/11 - 1 bird singing on territory at the private ranch near Laporte. Rose-breasted Grosbeak 6/11 - 1 adult male seen at the Laporte private ranch with an unknown female (Rose-breasted, Black-headed, or Hybrid). Also saw a male hybrid Rose-breasted x Black-headed Grosbeak. Indigo Bunting 6/11 - 1 male singing on territory at the Laporte private ranch. Bobolink 6/9 - At least 4 males and 2 females on territory just south and east of Cattail Pond. This is the 3rd year in a row I have had them at this location and also the 5th year out of the past 8 years.
