There was an adult PACIFIC LOON on Boulder Reservoir this morning. There are
still 4 LONG-BILLED DOWITCHERS at Sixmile, but no Black-bellied Plover.
Along Boulder Creek just west of 75th St, there was a SWAMP SPARROW, the
resident AMERICAN DIPPER, and 1 AUDUBON'S and 1 MYRTLE YEL
Birders,
Just a quick heads-up that the BLACK-BELLIED PLOVER was still at Sixmile
Reservoir today. No sign of the Sabine's Gull, but there was one adult THAYER'S
GULL out there with the RING-BILLEDS and a CALIFORNIA GULL.

Hello birders,
Thanks to Dave Dowell's eBird report, I tracked down the juvenile BLACK-BELLIED
PLOVER at Sixmile this afternoon. There was also a juvenile SABINE'S GULL
foraging along the shore. The same bird that was reported earlier in the fall??
Anyone seen it recently??
Lots of activity on
ARROW feeding in the median of the dirt
track that goes west through the old homestead across the street from where
Monarch meets 55th. Although this property is open to the public (OSMP) and the
gate is open, please do not drive vehicles down the track. That, I'm quite
sure, is not authorized.
