Good Morning All, The Golden-crowned Sparrow appeared under the platform feeder at 7:38 A.M. this morning. Not near as many birds at the feeders as during the winter, but still the same species. I was surprised to see a lone Pine Siskin come in to the feeder area. At Ship Rock things we

Hi All, A young man named Jay and I watched the Golden-crowned Sparrow put in an appearance under the platform feeders at the Red Rocks Trading Post about 8:10 this morning. The number of juncos seems to be reduced considerably from a week ago. The PS x WW cross was there early. Other

The GOLDEN-CROWNED SPARROW continues to hang out near the parking lot at North Teller Farms off of Valmont Rd (today Mar 11, 1130AM). Each time I've seen it, it has been within 10 feet or less of a White-crowned Sparrow. I'm at this trailhead 4 times or more each week biking and I usually take a

Good Morning, A bit on the breezy side this morning, but lots of birds at the Red Rocks feeders this morning. The Golden-crowned Sparrow showed up right at 6:45 A.M. under the upper apple tree. Did not see any Rosy- Finches. My guess is we won't see any more Rosy-Finches at Red Rocks un

Hi All, Since I won't be able to get to the feeders at the Red Rocks Trading post for the next couple of days, I took some seed down about 4:30P.M. and stayed for 45 minutes. Seems like some new birds arrived during the day. As soon as I arrived I noticed two White-winged Juncos side by

Good Morning All, The Golden-crowned Sparrow first appeared a little after 8 this morning below the platform feeder. He spent the next 10-15 minutes alternating between feeding under the platform feeder and retreating in to the shrubs. Other highlights of the morning at the feeders incl

The Golden-crowned Sparrow was very cooperative this morning for the DFO Field Trip appearing several times. Our group also was able to see the Prairie Falcon harass a Red-tailed Hawk perched on top of one of the large rock formations (Ship Rock). Later on the group had good looks at the

In keeping with my own request of a couple days ago, I am reporting spotting this shy bird today. It was in the bushes just on the other side of the fence on the south side of the parking lot. It never went under the cedars. It was staying with a smaller sparrow that I could not id, perhaps the juv
