[cobirds] Union Res. (Weld CO) Birds

Went out to Union Res last night and this morning, figuring the weather might bring in some shorebirds-and it certainly helped make it "extra" birdy. All of these were seen in the NW corner (basically County Line Rd and CR 28). A scope will be handy if you have one. In no particular order: 1

[cobirds] Re: problem posting to ebird

I had the same problem that Charlie reported, basically there was no list of birds when you start an observation. I deleted the Colorado Pack, then reinstalled it. On your phone, go to "More" (far right side on the bottom of the screen), go to "Packs", try deleting and reinstalling whatever Pa

Re: [cobirds] Pelican Mortality at Union Res (Boulder Co.)

All: Got quite a few responses to my post, almost all suggesting it could be High Path Avian Influenza (thank you Scott S. from the US F&WS!) and to call CPW. I did talk to a message taker there on Friday, will update everyone if/when I hear back from them. Jay Hutchins Longmont On Friday, A

[cobirds] Colorado Bird(er) elsewhere and a Red-naped Sapsucker (Boulder Co.)

Not wanting to run afoul (no pun intended) of our group rules, where can one go to seek info when birding, say for example, in London in January? A legit question in general, as many of us travel and knowing where to find the local equivalent of a COBIRDS group would be extremely helpful. Plea

[cobirds] 20 Red-necked phalaropes, Lagerman Res Boulder Co.

All: Decided to brave the wind and rain this afternoon and headed out to Lagerman Res to see if I could observe the Dunlin. Score one for a rarity in CO, as despite the scope shaking in the wind, I got some nice views. About 20 min into my foray (because darn it, if I'm going out in the nast

[cobirds] SE Colorado Trip Notes

All: Wife and I just got back from a three day trip to SE Colorado, recording 50 species between Brent, Baca, Prowers and Kiowa counties. It was hot, windy, dry, dusty, and did I mention windy and dry? Having done our first trip down there in 2003, this was the driest we have seen it. The li

Re: [cobirds] Re: New Options for Birding State Wildlife Areas

I wanted to add my twenty five cents to this topic as it's come up several times here in the past. My background comes from being a volunteer SAR member with Mesa County from 2005-07. Following comments are based on my knowledge of how things worked back then, but I believe it still works the

[cobirds] Re: Another bird with a deformed bill (Mead, Weld, CO)

Thanks for posting the article link. We had a Northern Flicker visit us for 3-4 years around 2012-2015 that had a deformity. He seemed to manage ok, even it if was a little depressing to hear his unanswered mating calls in the spring. Jay Hutchins Longmont [image: Flicker with curved bill 1

[cobirds] Lagerman Swans Update

All: Just got a very nice email from Christian N. who reviewed my (possible) Trumpeter Swan listing from this morning. Short version I changed it to Swan sp. as a 100% ID is not possible. (Heads up this is a lengthy post, but I think of some you will learn something new, I sure did.) Chris

don't believe these are the domestic swans typically seen across the road at Swede Lakes either (and I think those are Tundra's?). So please let me know if I made made much ado about nothing. Jay Hutchins Longmont CO On Saturday, October 24, 2020 at 12:07:57 PM UTC-6 jay...@gmail

[cobirds] Swans and LB Dowitcher's, Lagerman Res. (Boulder Co)

All: had a big surprise this at 7:35 am this morning at Lagerman Res in Boulder Co: 26 Long Billed Dowitchers and 3 Trumpeter Swans. I realize there have been many sightings of swans there, usually a pair of Tundra's seen at Swede Lakes, just across the road to the North. Here's my write up

[cobirds] Bazillion Blackbirds at Jim Hamm Nature Area (Boulder CO) Again

All: It's Late September, and that means Jim Hamm Nature Area in Longmont (County Line Rd & 17th Ave in Longmont) is a temporary home to a LOT of roosting birds. I've been documenting this really cool phenomena for several years now, and it's quite a sight to see. Overall mix is (I'm spitbal

[cobirds] Cattle Egret Union Reservoir-Weld CO.

Had a cattle egret at Union Res late this morning. Seen off of CR28 (the north side of Union) next to the Docheff Dairy farm small pond. Appropriately enough, and unlike the one see at Lake McIntosh recently, this one was in a field full ofcattle. Also had Wilson's, Yellow-rumped, Yellow
