Hi all, I have a couple of East Africa field guides that a wonderful member
of this group gave me. I find I will be spending more time there,
particularly in Kenya and Uganda and wondered about getting a newer one
that was a bit more comprehensive.
Any input is appreciated. Please email me direct
The record low water levels in the lake have attracted
Snowy Egrets. I've seen 1 or 2 there from time to time
in the last 44 years, but I saw 8 there today, and I got to see one
repeatedly snapping up small white fish.
They mostly hung out where the ditch inlet brings in water.

Heard at least 1 dickcissel singing yesterday from an irrigated hayfield about
1 mile south of Masonville yesterday, on the west side of the road, about 1
mile north of turn off for Eden Valley. First time around here to my knowledge.

FWIW, last summer I observed a Dark-Eyed Junco nest near downtown Colorado
Springs - a bit higher than metro Denver but still pretty low elevation.

I did a little research this morning. A lot of birds from many different
families are recorded as eating them. One article alone, written in 1941 in
Nevada, mentions the following species (in no formal order): turkey vulture,
sharp-shinned hawk, red-tailed hawk, Swainson's hawk, rough-legged

Hey all,
Jumping on the Cordilleran Flycatcher bandwagon, I've had one hanging out

I also was surprised by a singing Cordilleran Flycatcher a few weeks ago in
a suburban Fort Collins (Larimer) neighborhood east of the foothills.
This is a residential area with large, established deciduous trees mixed

9 territorial male Brewer's Sparrows (including 5 singing like unpaired
males). I will be checking two alpine sites in the San Juans tomorrow and
