Three weeks ago, my husband and I made the move from Colorado to Missouri. During the ten years we lived in Longmont, I had a life list of 91 birds for our home. I am missing my morning coffee on the back patio where we would listen and watch as birds visited our garden and made flyovers on their way to Union Reservoir and various ponds. Migration always brought some new visitors which were wonderful to experience.
Blue Jays, European Starlings, House Sparrows, and Eurasian-collared Doves are also regular visitors here. Red-bellied and Red-headed Woodpeckers have replaced visits from Downy Woodpeckers and Northern Flickers. Ruby-throated Hummingbirds and Northern Cardinals are abundant at my feeders. Sunrise and sunset flights by Chimney Swifts are a nice daily addition. New migrants are arriving and I'm looking forward to exploring and branching out as we settle into our new home on Stockton Lake. Colorado calls to me and I know I will return a couple of times a year to visit and bird my favorite areas.
