COBirders-- Once again, Brandon Percival has alerted me to a bird species
I had not seen. I finally went to Pueblo City Park at the same time the
Yellow-crowned Night-Heron was there, about 6:45 this morning. It was
perched on a branch of the dead tree on the duck pond (Lake Joy).
Leon Bright -
The elusive adult Yellow-crowned Night-Heron that I first saw back on May
27th, showed up again at Pueblo City Park, Pueblo County this morning. A
few other birders were able to see it, and many photos were taken. The
bird was standing on the island on the west side of Lake Joy for a little
while
Seen at 235 on the west side of dunkirk along the creek less than 1/4 mile.
