For the last 3 days I've had a pair of these doves bringing in their
young. They don't waste any time do they? Anyone else seeing fledglings?
Great-tailed Grackle pair back at Wellington SWA along Nunn Road (aka
Larimer CR 64 aka Weld CR 100) on strip of land between the east and

Turkey Vultures have been showing up around Del Norte this week. In past years
they have roosted at the nursing home in DN (how depressing!), and one was
there today. I could not see a band, on it but anyway Wing? Leg? I didn't
record the info. about banding that someone sent recently. Please
Hi COBirders,
Being inspired by the Dinosaur Ridge Hawkwatch, Wednesday, I thought
I'd try my luck down here. I found access to the ridge just above the
end of Garden of the Gods Road by walking in from the neighborhood
behind. The high point there gives unobstructed views down the
Birded Valco Ponds west of the parking lot this morning. Not a lot of birds,
but there were two black phoebes by the bridge near the construction site where
they nested last year. Other highlights were Lincoln's sparrow and hairy
woodpecker. There were a lot of swallows, including cliff,
This morning I briefly saw an egret species at the drainage pond behind Safeway
in Falcon, El Paso County; I relayed the info to Jeannie Mitchell who saw 3

Hi All,
Hawk Mountain PA is coordinating the turkey vulture study, on a
western population of TVs.
Tonight we watched a very light male red-tail hawk escorting a group
of four migrant vultures away from its territory. They took off
immediately when he made a B-line toward them. Interestingly
Good morning,
For the past few days a greater white-fronted goose and a Canada goose have
been wandering or sitting together along the lake near our condo building.
The first bird has been here since early February, always among the flocks of
Canada's that arrived in late fall, and
While hiking up the Towhee trail near the south end of the Mesa trail
about noon today, I saw a kettle of at least six Turkey Vultures
riding a thermal and slowly heading north over the Flatirons. I did
not see any wing tags.
Also notable along the trail were several singing Ruby-crowned
Dear Co-birders:
On Thursday, April 9th, I saw a Horned Grebe in almost full breeding
plumage, along the Arkansas at Runyon Lake here in Pueblo. It seemed so tiny
among the coots it was keeping company with! Rather striking, that-and
strange-since the only one I'd seen in breeding
