[cobirds] Bushtits - Gunbarrell, Boulder Cty

For the second time while looking for Bohemians I stumbled upon a large mixed flock made up mostly of bushtits. At least 13,  certainly many more. This was along Robinson Pl. Where the road crosses the ditch and trail at 11:50am. I also had a single Eastern Bluebird on the shore of the still

Today Cathy Sheeter, David Dowell and I played Reservoir Roulette. Little Jumbo was partially open, and had a few hundred white geese upon it. Jumbo Jumbo Reservoir was mostly an ice cube, with about 5% of the water open, mostly in the ne. corner. Entertainingly, they opened the reservoir for
