I spotted a single Black Phoebe twice this morning near the Arkansas River
just west of the Sell's Lake parking area. Both times were brief and both

That's a great report and for the most part great news. Thanks a lot for
getting back to me. Deb

A week ago I found and photographed a very unique colored Swainson's Hawk
East of Kersey on Highway 34. Where he should be brown he is a

I spent a fair amount of time on the eastern plains in the past couple
of weeks. As is typical with monsoon flows, the heavy rains come in
pockets. Overall, the plains are looking vastly improved over

Deb and others,
There are two available datasets to look at for precipitation totals (both are

Hi Deb et al,
I came through Last Chance on July 30th. This is prior to the monster rains
you mention but the place had obviously received some moisture this summer.

I was very surprised to see two adult male lark buntings in my yard
yesterday; they were with a group of lark sparrows. We live in

New ranch bird! Pics available.

Hi Deb, We just drove through eastern Colorado. Everything is fairly green
because of recent rain. Even down into the Lamar/Two Buttes area
everything has greened up and there is water in the creeks. While we were

rain. S
