Ben, I was the one who saw the duck there on May 9th. I provided lots of photos
of it with my eBird list. Just waiting for them to approve it!
I like that hotspot. The residents of the area are friendly and knowledgeable.
Happy birding!

Yeah, I don't see any recent reports from Stewart's Pond. I personally
don't feel comfortable birding that hotspot either because it is only
viewable from the county road and there is a residence directly between the
county road and the pond. If you were hoping to see a Mexican Duck, one was
Thank you, that makes sense!

I re-found the Green Heron just after 8am this morning. It was on a log at
the south-west "corner" of the pond where the creek is. It flew off before
I could get a photo, calling very distinctively. It didn't re-appear from
the reeds on the opposite shore. Thank you Ken for letting me know how
Definitely a Say’s. Tail would be redder on Ash-throated and yes the head
would look more crested.
Perfect location for Say’s.

I saw a red-headed woodpecker on a fence post on WCR 398 a little over a mile
east of WCR 59 in Keenesburg.

All,
On Saturday, May 16, 2020, I attempted my second cycling/green big day in
Colorado. The weather was perfect, not too hot nor cold, migrants (and
waterfowl!) were largely still around, and it didn’t get too windy! I
lucked out and couldn’t have picked a better day, and fortunately it fell
on
Susan-
FYI, Mexican Duck does not appear on the COBIRDS RBA because it is not
recognized by the Colorado Bird Records Committee as a separate species.
I just don't want you to think any RBA Compiler left it off the list
because we questioned your ID.

Ten days is not an unreasonably long time to wait for a review, Susan.
Naturally birders hope for rapid responses, especially positive responses.
The volunteer ID reviewers are usually swamped, especially during migration,
plus (gasp) they may spend a bit of time birding themselves or even
more
I'm sure the eBird reviewers are very busy with all the great birds everyone
has been seeing, but is it unusual to have not heard anything about a bird
spotted on May 9th? It was at the Stewart's Pond hotspot in Weld County. Steve
Mlodinow had first spotted the Mexican Duck there in late April.
Hi All,
I reported a Cassin's kingbird yesterday evening at Heron Pond in Denver.
The dark grey stood out when I first saw this bird and the contrasting
white malar had me convinced. I was pretty excited. But after consulting
with more experienced birders I realized I didn't check the tail for
Hi Caleb,
I saw the same light buteo yesterday at the ELC. Did you get any responses
on the ID?
Thanks,

Norma,
According to eBird records, in May thru July, Pygmy Nuthatches are closely
tied to Ponderosa
Pines, in the foothills and mountains, extending east only along the Palmer
Divide.
There are no records in the Greeley area or east during May thru June, so
that sighting is remarkable. In fall and

I’d vote for say’s phoebe. The and is darker, a ruddy orange. The ash throated
has more of a crest. If you can see his tail, it is a much darker brown.
Hope you get a good I.D. for your bird!
