[cobirds] El Paso county --- Red-necked Grebe, Pacific Loon and...

COBirders, My dad and I stopped by Big Johnson reservoir late this evening, just after 7, and found a few nice birds.  There was a RED-NECKED GREBE out in the northern half of the reservoir and a PACIFIC LOON just west of the grebe.  There was also another LOON but it was only in view for a

[cobirds] Re: Timnath (Larimer) Buff-breasted Sandpiper - NO

I also failed to relocate the Buff-breasted Sandpiper after circling the entire reservoir. I noticed that Andy saw about 10 Pectorals and I only saw 1 so it is possible some shorebirds slipped through our dragnet, including the Buff-breasted. However, I have the feeling this guy was a one-hit

Re: [cobirds] Common Grackle movements in Lafayette, Boulder County

Harriman Lake had a mix of juveniles and adults. As my primary purpose was exercising the mutt I didn't look at the ratio but my initial impression was not one sided in either direction. Chip Clouse Lakewood On Sep 12, 2016 7:56 AM, wrote: > One thing I noticed over the years

[cobirds] Timnath (Larimer) Buff-breasted Sandpiper - NO

The number of searchers for #Larimer421 reached double digits this morning (if you count in binary). I did a counterclockwise loop around the reservoir to check the area where the sandpiper was yesterday early in my trip. Dave Wade showed up a little later and did a clockwise loop, and when we

[cobirds] Fwd: Colorado Osprey Tracking - September 12

Greetings, We are tracking an Osprey from her nesting site near the Grand Lake area. We named her Shadow because her nest site was on the shore of Shadow Mountain Reservoir. We also tracked her in 2013 but the satellite tracking device fell off just before 2014 spring migration. We were happy to

[cobirds] Stub-tailed Wren

Amazingly, I just had a stub-tailed wren in my front yard in Niwot that startled me when I opened my front door to look for the paper! It then flew into a mass of brambles along the side of my house. I'm leaning towards a Winter Wren based on a chip note I heard two minutes later that sounded like

[cobirds] RFI: migrating swans

We are hoping to go to either the Bear River Refuge in Utah or somewhere in Idaho to see migrating swans in November. Does anyone have any suggestions or tips about the best places to go to see this amazing happening? Or the best time to see it? Any advice will be much appreciated. Thanks,

Re: [cobirds] Common Grackle movements in Lafayette, Boulder County

One thing I noticed over the years is that this time of year the Grackle flocks are mostly juvenile birds. All the grackles seem to leave the area then in the fall the flocks arrive from who knows where, and are comprised almost entirely of juvenile birds. Are these grackles your seeing
