[cobirds] Update CBC dates (excel file)

[Scott E. Severs]

Note the change in date of the Flagler CBC led by Bill Kaempfer. I have all
but four dates of the 50 Colorado CBCs. Left me know of any changes in your
CBC if you are a compiler. Thank you all for your help.

Re: [cobirds] Prothonotory Warbler @ 9AM Centennial Park, Arapahoe Cty

[BirdNerd's Email]

Gary (and others),

I apologize for not leaving more details about how to get there - I myself 
wasn't sure where it was when I first saw the reports.  My savior was signing 
up for the rarity reports from ebird where each sighting triggers an email with 
who made the sighting and links to a map of the sighting, the checklist for 
observer, photos if available, and notes from the observer.  

If you don't mind a lot of e-mails you can set them to come within an hour of a 
rarity sighting by county.  I hope that helps for the future-

Regards,

Mark Minner-Lee

[cobirds] Gull ID help - Aurora - Arapahoe County

[JBreitsch - Denver]

I was wondering if someone could help me with a couple of gull IDs.  These 
are both from Aurora Reservoir, where I thought I'd take a look at some of 
the birds seen yesterday.  I'm larus challenged, however, so I could use 
all the help I can get.  
 
The first bird, I'm calling an immature Glaucous Gull.  It is a large bird, 
bi-colored (pink with black tip) bill, pink legs, pale color, whitish 
wingtips, dark eye:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/breitschbirding/11057406753/
 
The second I'm just calling a gull.  I didn't notice any dark or black wing 
tips on this one.  It also seemed bigger than all the birds around it and 
had a slightly less streaked head.  
 
http://www.flickr.com/photos/breitschbirding/11057335046/in/photostream/
 
I apologize for the over sharpening and lack of perfect field mark views.  
There are other shots of these, and one I'm calling a Lesser Black-backed 
Gull.

[cobirds] 5 Tundra Swans, Sombrero Marsh, Boulder County + Prairie Falcon

[Maureen Blackford]

Hello,  

At 10:30am on Monday 11/25, there were 5 Tundra Swans on Sombrero Marsh, 
Boulder County.   One was adult, with the yellow lores.   The other 4 didn't 
have the yellow, but had the same bill size, with the rounded border at the top 
of the bill, and curve at the gape.   (They look like the "1st Summer" pictures 
in Sibley's Guide.)The pond is starting to ice up, so they swim back and 
forth at the southeast section of the pond.   

Sombrero Marsh is 1 block south of 63rd & Arapahoe in Boulder.

There was a prairie falcon (adult) sitting in the cottonwood tree over Naropa, 
at the northwest corner of 63rd & Arapahoe.

RE: [cobirds] Prothonotory Warbler @ 9AM Centennial Park, Arapahoe Cty

[William H Kaempfer]

Here is another suggestion for confirming directions for most of these 
rarities; one that I use all the time.

Go to the CFO Website http://cfobirds.org/   as Joe suggests.  In the lower 
right corner of the home page is a list generated automatically from eBird 
showing most recent eBird observations from Colorado that have required 
additional details as part of their submission to eBird.  Each of these 
sightings comes with species and county information and a notation that shows 
if the observation has been reviewed by an eBird reviewer (typically a timing 
issue).  However, there is also a map function.  Click on "map" and you will go 
to a Google Maps site showing where the bird was observed.  There are a couple 
of caveats, however; first, the map pushpin sites the general area (Centennial 
Park, in this case) not where in the park, and second, sometimes the observer 
has reported the observation with a generic county or even state location.  In 
this case, however, Centennial Park is shown as off Union between S. Santa Fe 
Dr. and S. Federal.

By the way, if you are really interested in exploring rarities across the 
nation there is a change tab that lets you pick a different state.  Going to 
Texas for Thanksgiving?  Don't miss the rare and illusive Ring-billed Gull 
reported in Webb County (Laredo) yesterday!  Or you could find that the last 
reports for Amazon Kingfisher were from Saturday.

When I struggle to find directions to a site mentioned on Cobirds,
especially ones with common names, like "Bear Creek," "Deer Creek,"
or "Animadversion Creek," I hop on the CFO County birding website. At the
top of the page is a link named, "Find a Site."

There I found this handy description:

*Centennial Park*
*Description* - This medium sized pond is probably the best pond for
waterbirds in the area. Large flocks of dabblers and divers can be found
here during the colder months, and keep an eye out for grebes and maybe
even the stray loon or two. Gull flocks could potentially hold an
interesting species or two during the winter, and who knows what rarity
(maybe even a Prothonotary Warbler some cold November day) could show up at
this seldom-birded location.
*Habitat* - Pond, Park
*Directions* - Take the Santa Fe exit off of C-470 and head north on Santa
Fe for 5 miles to Union Ave. Take a left onto Union Ave and head across the
South Platte River to Decatur St in 0.8 miles. If you reach Federal Blvd
you have gone too far. Turn right onto Decatur and head north to the
parking lot for the park, on the right.

Re: [cobirds] Prothonotory Warbler @ 9AM Centennial Park, Arapahoe Cty

[Larry Modesitt]

Good question: it isn't readily identified. It is in Arapahoe County slightly 
east of Federal and on Union Avenue (which is 1/2 mile north of Belleview).

Hi,

Can I get some confirmation of WHICH Centennial Park is referenced?  There's 
one 
in Englewood, and then there's the new one by the Centennial City buildings 
east 
of I-25 on Arapahoe?

Thanks!
