Re: [cobirds] Barr Lake Adams County
The application cited that the water level increase would be beneficial for camping, hiking, and birdwatching. In reality, the walking (not hiking) really will not change, except less/no shade due to lack of trees. Barr Lake does not allow camping. Of course, unless you like just waterbirds, it will decrease song birds, shorebirds, and possibly raptors. Yes, humans value crops, oil/gas, water, fracking. And money. And many of us value it over wildlife. Sadly, the more wildlife is eliminated, the worse things are in the long run for humans.

Re: [cobirds] Barr Lake, Adams County, ALL species
Today at the Barr Lake Banding Station we could hear them cutting down more cottonwoods and other vegetation. They are slowly, but surely, destroying habitat for birds and other wildlife. It also looks ugly without any trees, and I sure wouldn't want to take a walk on the trail on a hot day. If there is something we can do, it needs to be done NOW, because the destruction has already started. I think I can speak for all of us when I say we were quite upset and depressed at the Banding Station today.

[cobirds] Barr Lake - Adams County
2 May 2016 Barr Lake State Park - From the Visitor's Center bridge to the Pioneer Trail I went to Barr in the afternoon just to get out of the house on such a beautiful day. There were a few migrants such as Hermit Thrush, Orange-crowned Warbler, and Horned Grebe. My favorite for the day was a White-crowned Sparrow staying tantalizingly far enough in front of me on the path to avoid any classic photos. Sometimes, you just have to applaud their unwillingness to interact with humans.

[cobirds] Barr Lake (Adams County) Birding on 11/28
I joined Niña Routh and her band of Black Friday Birders a day late this year for a half-day of birding at Barr Lake State Park. We started in the NW corner by the BCOR (aka RMBO) headquarters where we had our most unusual birds of the day-5 Least Sandpipers trying to find some shore between the ice and the water. Also in this area were a fairly large number of Mourning Doves for November (16) and a Say's Phoebe. Swinging around to the BLSP Visitor Center we worked through the 4 species of white and white-cheeked geese present as well as good numbers of regular diving ducks but did not find the Lesser Black-backed Gull reported earlier by the Sanders family. We continued on for quick visits to Horsecreek and Prospect Reservoirs (the latter will soon be frozen) but our most significant finds on that loop were a Merlin tending a large flock of Horned Larks and a sharp looking Rough-legged Hawk. (as an aside, I will note that the afore mentioned, by Peter Gent, White-winged Scoter was still present, but over by the Baseline Reservoir dam by 4:00 p.m.) Bill Kaempfer Boulder -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.

Today at Barr Lake there was a lot of exposed mudflat and large numbers of waterbirds, mostly western grebes, a half dozen (of what appeared to be) stilt sandpipers and vast quantities of ducks. Gulls included mostly Ring-Bills, and a few Franklin's in winter plumage. Within the mass of ducks, from the end of Gazebo Boardwalk at the south end of the lake, a Eurasian Widgeon was spotted on the sandbar just to the north. Good views were had by the two birders present. The time was from 3 PM to 4 PM. Very cool!

Hello all, The shorebirds that Joe Roller did not find recently at Barr Lake were there on Saturday morning, at least in modest numbers. The group I was birding with (Michael Kiessig, Cynthia Madsen, Scott Yarberry, Celia Greenman, Karen Drozba, and Sue Sommers) found the following along the ample mudflats and shoreline on the east and south shores: along with the inevitable Killdeer, 23 Stilt Sandpipers, 4 Least Sandpipers, 30 Baird’s Sandpipers, 3 Long-billed Dowitchers, 2 Lesser Yellowlegs, and 1 juvenile Sanderling. There were also about 50 Snowy Egrets, 2 Great Egrets, and 2 Sabine’s Gull, along with large numbers of Franklin’s Gulls, Western Grebes, American White Pelicans, and Double-crested Cormorants (as mentioned by Joe). Also 6 Bald Eagles (one adult). Bob Andrews currently in Centennial -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.

Re: [cobirds] Barr Lake, Adams County, July 2
Ted, you were asking what was up with the cackling geese hanging out here for the summer. I have up to 800 geese on the townhouse property where I live near Littleton in the winter time, many of them being the lesser forms. By migration time, March or so, all of those geese leave with just the 50 Resident Giesting. For the first time in the 11 years that I've been here, a pair of lesser Canada geese and a greater white fronted goose stayed here. I was surprised by that. They didn't have any offspring, but did seem to be accepted by the other geese. Deb Carstensen, Littleton, Arapahoe County, Colorado.

[cobirds] Barr Lake - Adams County
Date: 12 May 2014 Time: Noon - 4PM Location: Barr Lake - Mostly between the bridge at the visitor's center to the Pioneer Trail I started birding in the snow and ended up staying out for a few hours. There were many, many thrushes around, mostly Swainson's, some Hermit's, and one Veery. Also Gray Catbird. For sparrows, I had Song, Lincoln's, Chipping, Clay-colored, Lark, White-crowned, and one White-throated Sparrow. Also a Green-tailed Towhee. I added one Orchard Oriole to the many Bullock's. Warblers included the usual suspects plus Yellow-breasted Chat, MacGillavray's, and Townsend's. Other birds of possible interest were a Peregrine Falcon, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Warbling Vireo, Eastern Kingbird, Least, Dusky, and one or two dozen unidentified Flycatchers, and many soaring pelicans. Before I left my development I also had a Northern Mockingbird just to kick start things. Not a bad day.

I didn't have my scope with me, since I hadn't planned on going to Barr. I just ended up there. If anyone feels like sorting through a lot of white geese, there are dozens of them all over the park; both in and out of the water. If someone said there were 50 there, I wouldn't argue. Also there, and along the way (DIA Owl Loop) were large numbers of raptors. These ranged from kestrels to Bald Eagles, with harriers, Red-tailed, and Ferruginous in between.

Nothing exceptional to note, although the Nashville Warblers (2) are still there. Both in the brush along the canal between the banding station and the Pioneer trail.

I made it out to Barr Lake this afternoon and I thought I was having a good day. Then I read Meredith's post. Apparently, some of the good birds that I found were caught earlier in the morning, so none of them have any stealth capabilities whatsoever. No wonder I was able to find them all. They were still great to see, even though I have very few photos to show for it. Among the better ones for the counters to be on the lookout for tomorrow are: Nashville Warbler (irrigation canal) Townsend's Warbler (irrigation canal) Clay-colored Sparrow (canal near the picnic area past the banding station) MacGillavray's Warbler Osprey with a fish Yellow-billed Cuckoo with a black bill (young. Yellow orbital ring and rufous in the wings) (Pioneer Trail) Great-crested Flycatcher (Pioneer Trail) Cassin's Kingbird (picnic area past the banding station - opposite side of canal) Green-tailed Towhee Golden-winged Warbler (canal near the picnic area past the banding station) Vesper Sparrow (same area as the GWWA) Western Tanager (Pioneer Trail) There were also many other flycatchers, which included (some definite, some possible) Hammond's, Cordilleran, Olive-sided. Good photos were few and far between, but the cuckoo came out okay in one. Some of the others are on the link below my name.

I spent a couple of hours at Barr Lake State Park between 0700-0900. Some new species are starting to find their way there. Of the 50+ species were the following: Swainson's, Hermit, and Gray-checked (refound) Thrush Yellow-rumped, Orange-crowned, Yellow, and Tennessee Warblers Warbling and Cassin's Vireo Green-tailed Towhee Western and Eastern Kingbirds and a Western Wood Pewee Western Tanagers and Bullock's Orioles added to the color With all of these great birds, I think I managed to get a picture of a poorly lit House Wren.

It was a fairly quiet afternoon at Barr Lake. There are definite signs of spring, however. Yesterday I was there and saw the Ospreys back on their pole for the first time this year. Also, there was a FOS Chipping Sparrow. Today added Ruby-crowned Kinglet, Eastern Phoebe (on the waters edge just a bit north of the banding station), six White-faced Ibis flying over (there was one there yesterday as well), multiple kestrels, and about a half dozen Say's Phoebes. I also had Swainson's Thrush, very active hawks of most varieties and a Myrtle's Yellow-rumped Warbler. I only spent an hour there and I'm calling in slow, but I did have over 40 species in that time. It was funny to see the dozens of posts earlier this week. Snow, sleet, high winds, lousy road conditions - and all the birders were out in force. Storms=birds. Apparently, birders CAN be trained. Now if we could only put the toilet seat down.

Barr Lake is picking up just a bit. There were more Yellow Warblers, Bullock's Orioles and Western Kingbirds than just a day or two ago. You can't walk 50 feet along the trail between the Nature Center footbridge and the banding station without scaring up a pair of Wood Ducks. Other birds of note that have shown up are: Common Yellowthroat (at least one pair) Virginia's Warbler Summer Tanager (wearing the 1st year red and yellow colors) The tanager was observed from just south of the banding station. It was in the far Cottonwoods. It seemed to disappear away from the trail, more towards the lake.

Pamela and I took a quick trip to Barr Lake this morning. It was early and still cold when we were there. We found very few warbler species, but twice as many sparrows. Included in those were Black- throated, Clay-colored, Lincoln's, Chipping, Lark, House, Song, and a couple of towhees. Also of note were Brown Thrasher, Plumbeous Vireo and Northern Waterthrush. On the way to Barr at the corner of Tower and 120th, there was a Great Egret.
