Hello COBirders, I walked around Stalker Pond (named Stalker Lake on eBird hotspots) for an hour this afternoon, 4/21.
The place was busy with a few families fishing the pond and else quiet but for some Canada geese and a pair of greater yellowlegs. Best birds had to be a pair each of white-crowned and Harris's sparrows. No flycatchers, in spite of an impressive caddis hatch, and no warblers. Small numbers of wood duck, mallard, northern shoveler, green-winged teal and ring-necked duck. Four rough-winged swallows and lots of mourning doves. A kettle of 48 turkey vultures with a single Swainson's hawk rode thermals high over the town of Wray. In a few short hours I'm off to seek the dancing chickens, so some sleep is in order. Happy trails, Luis (Beto) Matheus Delray Beach, FL (formerly Erie, CO) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
