I have a list of birds that have not been put on eBird that goes back to fall of 2021 here in Eagle County. I have tried to contact a few people that I know who are connected with eBird and their reply to me was that they could not help. I go out most every day of the year and do the best

I, too, had a White-throated Sparrow, before sunrise Thursday, with my usual juncos (Slated-coloreds, Pink-sideds, Oregons and a single White-winged). The White-throated was a new yardbird for me here in Denver's Hale neighborhood. But the Cassin's Finch(es) were no-shows, as well (singles a

A Northern Shrike was staking out the goldfinches in my tiny townhouse yard yesterday morning. Definitely did a double take for that unexpected visitor. Goldfinches were too elusive for the shrike. Scott Severs Longmont. Please Note the "E" in my email address below, and make sure it's correct

An immature White-throated Sparrow rolled in with a group of Grey-headed and Slate-colored juncos to join the wintering gang of juncos, nuthatches, chickadees and finches yesterday. A young western Downy male also appeared, making a nice contrast with the eastern Downy that has been here
