While doing some casual birding this afternoon at Golden Ponds in
Longmont, CO, I noticed a lone Double-crested Cormorant hanging out
amongst the geese that appeared to have an injured left wing and most
likely cannot fly. I am asking for advice what to do. Isn't there a
rehabilitation center
I stopped at Ramah SWA last week and saw only a Red-tailed Hawk
sitting in a tree near the new trail that was recently put in. Does
anyone know why there is no water there any more? Last year, while
certainly not full, the pond had adequate water to attract a good
assortment of ducks and
I saw these loons at Big Johnson Reservoir today and I think they are Pacific
loons.
Thanks in advance for any comments clarifying whether they are Pacific or
common loons

Last week I found a second Yellow-bellied Sapsucker in Centennial Park.
Though it is also an adult male I can differentiate it from the one I found
on Oct 29 because it has substantially less red on it's crown. I have
posted a series of photos of this newer sapsucker on my blog at
Tony,
Greenwood Wildlife Rehab Center (in Longmont) has tended to DC Cormorants.
But I don't think they have the resources to retrieve the injured animals
from the field, instead relying on people to bring them in. Their phone is
303-545-5849.

Before somebody straightens me out regarding the average crossbill interval
between visits, I just had the revelation that 24 divided by 4 = 6, not 8. No
wonder they never let me cut the pie at Thanksgiving.
