Four of us traveled to Summit Co. this morning. Thanks to Joey Kellner's suggestion, we found great mt birds at feeders in Silverthorne. Highlights were
~50 of all 3 spp of rosy-finches and the subsp Hepburn's Pine Grosbeaks Evening Grosbeaks Gray and Steller's Jays Clark's Nutcracker Star of the show was a beautiful adult Goshawk sitting in a nearby tree protesting our ruining his/her lunch of a pine squirrel or jay! The Silverthorne sewage pond held ~15+ Barrow's Goldeneye 10 Ring-necked Ducks Few Green-winged Teal Red-winged Blackbirds and a new nesting pole with a new nest that I had not noticed before this year. The old nest pole with the huge nest is still closer to Silverthorne. Beautiful sunny day in the mts. Kay Kayleen A.
