Hi David -
Important post by you.
As you know, this winter/spring has produced a huge amount of snow only over
the past two months. High potentially flowering plants are probably under
snow...much less being open and trying to bloom where it was 19 degrees in
Denver (new all-time low record) yesterday. My question...how low
(elevation) is the snow now...no food for calliopes?

Normally Calliope's spring migration is through the higher elevations of the
Pacific flyway. The timing of the individual here today isn't so odd for
spring migration. It's the location that's so rare.

Just saw and photographed a male Calliope at one of my feeders. This is nuts!
About 2 months before my typical first arrival.
A male Common Redpoll continued here yesterday.
Speaking of nutty, we had a bobcat on our roof a couple of weeks ago.
