Sparrows did eventually accumulate at Golden Ponds in Longmont. Late this afternoon, I counted 75 Chipping Sparrows and 9 Savannah Sparrows, along with other usual suspects, in the short stretch I walked. Otherwise, as Steve M. indicated, it seemed like business as usual there.
McIntosh Lake in Longmont, particularly the east end, attracted a nice collection of shorebirds, including: DUNLIN (2) Marbled Godwit (23) Willet (19) Semipalmated Plover Semipalmated Sandpiper Western Sandpiper Least Sandpiper Spotted Sandpiper American Avocet Greater Yellowlegs Similar to Ted Floyd's experience at Boulder Reservoir, I had the pleasure of encountering large shorebirds named Vanderpoel, Kaempfer, and Deininger.
