[cobirds] Colorado Christmas Bird Count Results
All the Colorado CBC Results are in for this past winter (December 14-January 5), *204 bird species *found on the 53 counts that were held, plus four Count Week only species. I have written my summary already, and there were some interesting birds for sure, eastern warblers, and other things. Maybe the most interesting thing, there was only one Golden-crowned Kinglet found on a Colorado CBC this year! A summary with most of the results will be in the Colorado Birds, the Journal of the Colorado Field Ornithologists, in the near future, and the full summary will be on the Christmas Bird Count website. If you want to see a copy of the summary of highlights and high counts for each species in the state on Colorado Christmas Bird Counts, just email me.

[cobirds] Red-breasted Merganser / Jeffco
South Platte Res this afternoon, mostly frozen over but with some open water on the far East end (trail across the top horrifically muddy). A small # of Com. Goldeneye, 1 pair Green-winged Teal (seemed odd on the big res), a dozen Ring-billed Gulls, 2 Bald Eagles sitting on the ice, and about 55 Common Merganser, mostly males. 1 Red-breasted male was associating with the flock.

[cobirds] Re: No joy on the Denver County pyrrhuloxia 2/27
That gentleman was my photography parter Carl. We arrived at 7:15AM and were joined by a birder around :30. Carl and the other gentleman both saw the pyrrhuloxia but it was for a fleeting moment, not enough time to get a lock for a picture. While I didn't see the pyrrhuloxia, I did have the wonderful pleasure of listening to it sing for about two minutes! I couldn't locate it while it sang. I did get pics of a spotted towhee in the brush next to the alley.

[cobirds] No joy on the Denver County pyrrhuloxia 2/27
My wife Kristin and I spent about an hour from 8:30 to 9:30 this morning looking for the pyrrhuloxia in Denver County at the hotspot. There were six or eight of us; one gentleman thought he saw it around 7:30, but a Cooper’s hawk scattered the mixed flock of house finches, juncos, and black-capped chickadees, along with the pyrrhuloxia. The flock started to move again around 9:00, but no pyrrhuloxia. Bryan Arnold Jeffco, 5,400’ -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
