Drove up to see the EWidgeon reported by Steve Mlodinow, still there, hanging out with his American cousins on the east side wetlands.   WCR 59, half mile south of US 34, east of Kersey.  If the wind is from the north, the feed lot is particularly flavorful - my van still smells! J.D.(Birch)

[cobirds] NE Colorado Thursday

I decided to make a run out to the northeast part of the state yesterday, to see if I could see any stirrings of spring. There were a few, but it took a bit of looking. Migrants in general were few and far between. Starting at Tamarack, the most notable activity was none. It was very quiet,

[cobirds] No Luck On Eurasian Wigeon (Weld County)

Went to the ponds on W.C.R. 59 and couldn't find the Eurasian Wigeon. But the winds were super strong in the direction I was facing (that didn't help at all) and shortly after I arrived nearly every single duck took off at once for no apparent reason (didn't see any raptors in sight)...most didn't

I know many of you are still wondering about the white crane that was found at the MV Refuge a few weeks ago. Since I reported it on COBIRDS, it seems to have generated quite a bit of chat in the chat rooms. A good friend of mine, Michael Forsberg, presented some photos of the Monte Vista
