Walker Visitors: First time observer was T.C. Walker from Ft. Collins who has previous experience as bird point counter in Colorado. 7 visitors stopped at the observation cite with no interest coming from them. The usual array of hikers, joggers and 1 bicyclist passed by. Weather: Clear skies throughout the day with a slight brown cloud haze developing throughout the day with no visibility impact. Visibility at 50km. Temperature range was 10-13 degrees Celsius. Wind ranges were 1 to 4 on Beaufort scale from variable directions primarily from the East, SE. Despite warming temperatures the wind made it feel cooler than indicated. Raptor Observations: No Migrating raptors were seen today. Only Red-tailed Hawks and 2 American Kestrels all locals were observed. Non-raptor Observations: 4 serious Red-tailed Hawks contenders for migrants were side-tracked or turned around. One of these was a Dark morph Red-tailed who was rebuffed by another Red-tailed. The Dark one then flew Southwest (not the airline). Another RT managed to determinately fly through a gauntlet of 3 attacking RTs but turned around at I-70 and glided past the East side of our cite. Numerous other Red-tailed were seen primarily between 11 a.m. to 1:30. Many were observed diving each other and performing aerobatics. The RTs were of various plumage. An American Kestrel was seen with prey only to lose it to an aggressive Black-billed Magpie. This scene was later repeated with the Kestrel maintaining its prey and being hounded by another Kestrel. Otherwise no other raptors were seen. Despite low bird activity few other birds were seen with the notable absence of some regular birds. Seen were 1 Townsend's Solitaire, 1 American Robin, 3 Eurasian Collared-Doves, 3 European Starlings, 1 Western Scrub Jay,5 Dark-eyed Juncos, 5 Black-billed Magpies. The only migrants of the day were 2 flocks of Mountain Bluebirds totaling 15. Predictions: Weather prediction indicates a similar day as today with warming temperatures. Hopefully the warmth and thermals will bring some migrants through. Report submitted by Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory (jeff.bi...@rmbo.org) Dinosaur Ridge information may be found at: http://www.rmbo.org/ Site Description: Dinosaur Ridge is the only regularly staffed hawkwatch in Colorado and is the best place in the world to see migrating Ferruginous Hawks. Dinosaur Ridge may be the best place in the country to see the rare dark morph of the Broad-winged Hawk (a few are seen each spring). Hawkwatchers who linger long enough may see resident Golden Eagles, Red-tailed Hawks and Prairie Falcons, in addition to migrating Swainson's, Cooper's and Sharp-shinned Hawks, American Kestrels and Turkey Vultures. Peregrine Falcons and Ferruginous Hawks are uncommon; Northern Goshawk is rare but regular. Non-raptor species
[cobirds] Another day in the Park (County), March 9
I enjoyed another lovely day in the Park yesterday, focusing mostly on the southern tier of the county. Stops in the Lake George region had three *Northern Pygmy-Owls* in Ponderosa forest. The species is quite regular in the southeast at part of the county. Lots and lots of of* Red Crossbills* in areas with good cone crops in the Lake George region. Overwhelmingly Type 2 were noted this date, but Type 5 in a few spots and Type 4 in one spot. Open water along the South Platte near Lake George had some diving ducks, and a *Belted Kingfisher* at the downstream side of town was my first in Park County in about 2 months. *American Robins* had returned to the area in small numbers. Lake George itself is frozen. At CR 98 near CR 61 I watched a movement of *Clark's Nutcrackers *and *Steller's Jays* as they traversed along a slope, totaling a nice 44 Clark's and 146 Steller's. The movement lasted only 3 minutes. First none, then a flow of birds, then nothing again. Working County Roads 403, 100 and 71 I began to encounter many *Mountain Bluebirds*. Some were flocks and some were pairs or singles. I had over 350 for the day. And just one *Western Bluebird* - a slightly early male along CR 71. A male *Williamson's Sapsucker* along CR 100 was very early! A few *Pinyon Jays* were along CR 411. CR 71 also had my first *Loggerhead Shrike* of the season and my first* Killdeer *in Park County since last fall. The shrike looked like it was hunting bluebirds! Areas of Gambel oak and pinyon pine along CR 104 near the county line has some *Western Scrub-Jays*, A *Northern Goshawk* was over the Park / Fremont line at CR 104, and nearby Highway 9 had another *Loggerhead Shrike* in Fremont just south of Park. Along Highway 59 climbs over a ridge between Saddle Mountain and Thirtynine Mile Mountain and passes through spruce/fir forest and here I had a delightful pair of *Gray Jays *and an *Am. Three-toed Woodpecker*. The Gray Jays responded to my pygmy-owl imitation by coming in very close, and one seemed to be giving own funky version of a pygmy-owl call! The Gray Jays occupied a gap in eBird occurrences for that part of the county, and I'll have to check if I' had the Three-toed in that area before... don't think so. Eleven Mile Reservoir was all frozen except for a small area at the northwest corner at the South Platte inlet. This area had a nice assortment of waterbirds, including 11 species of ducks, with 1 *Long-tailed Duck* and 4 *Greater Scaup* as the highlights. A *Double-crested Cormorant* was early, and a pile of gulls at the ice edge included 128 *California*, 1 *Herring* and 2 *Ring-billed*. An adult *Peregrine Falcon* was there, too. The ice-covered central part of the lake had 1 *Great Blue Heron* standing on a little islet, marooned in a sea of white...waiting, waiting. An almost tardy *Northern Shrike* was along CR 59 near Hartsel. It appeared to be hunting Horned Larks. A male *Am. Kestrel *along Hwy 285 near Buffalo Creek was the only one I saw, and was likely the same arrival I noted on Feb 24. Three *Rough-legged Hawks *were along Hwy 24 near Antero Reservoir, and one was near Jefferson. Late afternoon stops at Fairplay and Jefferson had a handful of *Rosy-Finches *at the former, and a better flock at the latter.

[cobirds] Bluebird Monitoring Class - Denver Metro Area
The folks at the Colorado Bluebird Project are planning to host an educational session for anyone interested in monitoring nestboxes and/or learning about bluebirds in general. It will be held at the Audubon Center at the south end of Chatfield State Park (no Parks Pass required) on Saturday, March 21st, from 10 AM till Noon. We will have a 45-minute presentation on the birds' nesting cycle, nestbox design and installation, nest monitoring protocols, reporting to Cornell's NestWatch database, handling problems and predators, etc. We will also show a 10-minute nestcam video that shows the entire nesting cycle inside the nestbox, from nest-building to fledging. There will be display boxes containing the nests and eggs of various box users such as bluebirds, tree swallows, etc., a variety of literature to peruse, and we will have the best nestboxes in the world available for sale (we know they're the best because we made them!) There will be several experienced nestbox monitors available to chat with and answer your questions. Refreshments will be served. Please RSVP to 303.973.9530 so we know how many chairs to set out and how many cookies to bake! Directions to the Audubon Center from C-470 and Wadsworth: Drive south on Wadsworth about 4.4 miles, just to the point where it starts turning west. Turn left onto Waterton Road. Drive about 100 yards and make the first left at the large stone sign that says: Audubon Center at Chatfield State Park / Discovery Pavilion. For those of you who have a group of folks interested in setting up and monitoring nestboxes, but are not in the Denver area or just can't attend on the 21st, we can also bring our 1-hour program to you at no cost to you. Contact Kevin Corwin at _CBPKevin@aol.com_ (mailto:cbpke...@aol.com) to learn more about it.

Some hikers and at least one biker passed by, but three hikers, two with dogs, took in the view. The hiker without a dog inquired about birds and what had been seen. A family group that managed to negotiate the trail also arrived for the view and took lots of pictures. Weather: Temperatures were mild. The sunny, clear blue sky had no clouds except for a few along the western horizon. Winds (beaufort 2 and 3) were initially from the west but shifted early to come consistently from the east. Visibility was good. Snow cover was incomplete and patchy but extensive throughout the valleys. Raptor Observations: No northward raptor migration was observed. Four local adult Red-tailed Hawks made repeated appearances from south of Mount Morrison to Cabrini Shrine, over WestRidge and the west-side valley, with one or two making appearances to the east of the HawkWatch site to do some roller-coaster maneuvers over Rooney Valley. An adult Golden Eagle was spotted south of Mount Morrison twice but made no apparent moves to migrate northward. The local Prairie Falcon was also observed to the south of Mount Morrison as it headed east, crossing the Ridge. The highlight of the day was a juvenile Sharp-shinned Hawk that was greeted by a flurry of five or six local Black-billed Magpies that rose as a group above ridgeline to harass it as it came north along the east side of the Ridge. It easily escaped them by climbing higher and heading east to Green Mountain. It was likely the same Sharp-shin that had been spotted twice before in Rooney Valley in the preceding half-hour; still, after the magpie encounter, it was not seen again during the afternoon. Non-raptor Observations: A single, northward-bound, very intent, non-raptor migrant was observed early in the morning; it was very likely a bluebird species. A group of bushtits moved north and south along the Ridge throughout the day; the group seemed to get larger as the day progressed, with many bushtits lingering in the junipers. A pair of Townsend's Solitares flitted among the trees in the morning. Between 15 to 20 Elk spent the day just east of the Cabrini Shrine. Also seen or heard were Black-billed Magpies, Western Scrub-Jay, Oregon Dark-eyed Junco, Northern Flicker, Common Raven, Pink-sided Dark-eyed Junco, Rock Pigeon and Mountain Chickadee. Predictions: It should be good weather again today, with the trail improving but still muddy and icy in places.

[cobirds] RE: Mountain Bluebirds - Eating
Hi, I have spent considerable time solving this issue of, What are the early bluebirds that hover over the prairie getting?. The specific site I observed most was the Pawnee Grasslands just west of Crow Valley. My conclusion is that these are some type of tiger moth (Family Noctuidae, Subfamily Arctiinae (which used to be considered the Family Arctiinae), Tribe Artiini , Genus Grammia. We have more than one species in this genus on the eastern plains of CO. The larvae eat various lower plants, including some grasses, and overwinter in this stage. On warm days they become active and certain ones of these are considered the fastest moving larvae of any North American macromoth (large moth). When I was watching the Mountain Bluebirds on the Pawnee back in the 1980's, they would hover kestrel-style and, in so doing, eventually discover and obtain a prey item. The caterpillars zoom from one tuft of bunchgrass to another. It took me a long time to figure this out. I felt quite foolish, running to an area where a bluebird had been hovering, only to see nothing. When I finally saw a sudden movement, it was a caterpillar streaking across an open area between grass clumps. Once I had the search image, I started seeing this pretty frequently and the mystery was solved. Once a bluebird had a caterpillar, on every occasion it was taken to a fence post (usually) or to an open area of prairie. There, it was unceremoniously thropped until flaccid and nearly hairless. I think the majority of what looks like excessive force during this whole process is that which removed the hairs. The hairs have to be formidable impediments to easy ingestion and must be removed to a considerable degree before the caterpillar body can be consumed. But since insect food is tough to come by during the weeks when northward movements in February and March take place, I guess an armed caterpillar is worth the effort it takes to de-arm it. So, that's what I think is going on. It is interesting that Mark said something about a pine tree, as there is a tiger moth that occasionally infests various foothills conifers, makes conspicuous tents in the very tops of infested trees, and the caterpillars ARE present in the winter months. But the ones in Mark's photos do NOT look like that species (Lophocampa ingens). Thus, I think my pretty sure ID of Grammia sp. is correct. You could do a search for Grammia tiger moth images and see examples of the adults. They all sort of look similar in general color scheme and pattern arrangement, and I am sure most astute birders have seen similar creatures in the field during the warm months. I enjoyed your observations here.

Is there any way that you could assist in identifying the caterpillars (grubs) that the birds are eating. I believe that they were getting them from a pine tree – but not sure of that fact. Your assistance in this inquiry is greatly appreciated. Inquiring minds would like to know... Have a great week – and enjoy the improved weather.

[cobirds] Reynolds Park - Jefferson County
Date: 10 March 2015 Time: 1240 - 1510 Weather: Sunny, mild I took a leisurely walk/hike up Mt Reynolds Park today. I only saw 11 species and managed to lug my camera the entire time without taking a single picture. I did, however see a Dusky Grouse that flushed from 25 feet above me on a hillside. Also, in a mixed flock of Mountain Chickadees and Brown Creepers, I saw a Golden-crowned Kinglet. This is only significant to me because it had been 2,136 days since my last G-c Kinglet sighting. For all of you literature majors** out there, that is less than two months short of six years. My half decade long bout of futility has finally ended. That futility included at least two dozen days last year specifically devoted to questing for this species. So, on to new and better goals. I think I'll now try to get a better picture of a Golden-crowned Kinglet than the one I have from 2009. I'm getting the sense of deja vu. I'm getting the sense of deja vu. The grouse was up Eagle's View Trail. The kinglet and company were on Raven's Roost near the bottom of that trail. ** I was truly just joking about the literature majors, so I hope I didn't offend anyone. I was just picking a major that wasn't math related. It takes a highly intelligent and ambitious person to even under take getting the noble degree of literature (too much?).
