This morning, Tom Pollock and I headed west of Sedalia looking for Three-toed Woodpeckers. After an extensive search, we were able to locate a gorgeous male. The woods were very quiet, with only a couple of Mountain Chickadees, two Townsend's Solitaire, and the Three-toed Woodpecker. On the w

[cobirds] Northern Pygmy-Owl - El Paso County - Hwy 24 west of Manitou Springs
