[cobirds] Lark Bunting, central Boulder

I was surprised to see a male Lark Bunting at the east end of Community Gardens this morning. We don't see our State Bird very often in Boulder. Also a flock of Lark Sparrows, several Clay-colored Sparrows, and 3 brilliant male American Goldfinches in the same small tree, looking like Christmas o

A chilly, overcast morning with great birds! I was looking for a bobolink around 6:30 AM where I've seen them in past years and instead saw a male lark bunting on the fence - got great looks before he flew off. What a treat, usually I have to go to the Pawnee to see them. Then seconds later

Hello CObirders, Today north of Drake about 3 miles, a Lark bunting appeared on my deck rail, where I had scattered some seed. I think he’s a long way from home. 8” snow here. Happy birding – Dave Hyde/nr Drake, Larimer Cty [cid:image003.jpg@01D50FF4.04D03B10] Sent from Mail
