All,

I took a quick trip to Stearns Lake in SE Boulder Co this morning. I turned south onto 104th St from Dillon Road, and the previously described Rough-legged Hawk was sitting on the east side of the 104th St bridge over the Northwest Parkway. I then drove about 1/4 mile south to just north of the houses, and stopped because there was a huge flock of Great-tailed Grackles flying west. They landed at the feedlot which is about 1/4 mile west of 104th St. I conservatively estimated the flock at 400 birds. This is 40 times larger than all previous groups of this species that I've ever seen in Boulder County.

Cheers,  Peter Gent.
