Cobirds carries lots of reports about birds that people see, but hardly any
about species that we don't see. I have queries on two:
Townsend's Solitaires: most winters, we have 2-5 on the hillside next to our
home. This year, none to one (none for the last 3 weeks). Have they picked
other
I had a couple of solitaires here in Littleton a few weeks ago when the weather
was first turning bad. Since then, none. Seems to me as if they've moved.
Same with red-breasted nuthatch.

Hugh and all,
I've noticed fewer Townsend's Solitaires this late fall and winter in the
juniper habitat around Pueblo Reservoir, despite the bumper juniper berry crop.
There are tons of Mountain Bluebirds and American Robins taking advantage of
the bounty, but solitaires seem few and far
Looks like Fremont County is the hotspot for Townsend's Solitaires as well
as sapsuckers. I have seen very good numbers of Townsend's Solitaires in
pinyon-juniper and juniper woodlands this fall and beginning of winter
season.
I haven't noticed any significant difference in the numbers of
