This morning in our yard we had a "Yellow-shafted" Northern Flicker. I walked Weld CR 114/85 SE corner and had four visual sightings of Chestnut-collared and 3+ audio out in the far fields. Dover Reservoir had Golden Eagle and American Crow (rare for Nunn). Crom Lake had lots of usual birds (American Avocet, Greater Yellowlegs, all kinds of ducks with an impressive 34 Green-winged Teal. I had a Brewer's Sparrow at WCR 86/31.
You need a USDA permit to enter the Chestnut-collared site. I am leading Boulder County Audubon trip (http://coloradobirder.ning.com/events/is-it-spring-yet) next Saturday there if you are interested in attending and seeing possible Chestnuts - http://coloradobirder.ning.com/events/is-it-spring-yet. There is a CPER sign on gate that directs folks to building two miles to east to ask for permission to enter--I'm asking USDA/ARS if that local sign aligns with their required permit policy.
