Happy New Year! I saw the continuing ACORN WOODPECKER (El Paso) this morning around 0930 in the same location near Cheyenne Blvd and Willow Cir. It was very vocal and flying around a lot, and was quite easy to find. It visited briefly a feeder in the aforementioned yard with the Grinch inflatable.
Mark Peterson, Lisa Edwards, Brandon Percival and I birded in Pueblo, Fremont and Custer Counties yesterday. Most things have already been posted, but we can add a F BARROW'S GOLDENEYE in Pueblo on the Arkansas R below City Park (near the footbridge); a COMMON REDPOLL that we found on the N side of Pueblo Res near Juniper Breaks; two strange and unidentified hybrid-looking gulls at Pueblo Res in the evening (one almost certainly a GWxSomething, maybe the same bird seen way back in 2012; the other, simply unknown gull sp., although the words 'slaty' and 'backed' were mentioned...); and finally, a F EASTERN TOWHEE in the town of Wetmore (Custer Co.) in a yard with feeders on CR-395.
