[cobirds] Pueblo Reservoir was good this afternoon 12/28

I only looked from the southeast side of Pueblo Reservoir and the South Shore Marina at Pueblo Reservoir this afternoon.  I hadn't been out to the Reservoir since Dec 15th, and there are a lot more birds than there was back on that date.  Highlights today follow:

Red-throated Loon - 1
Pacific Loon - 1
Common Loon - 3
Tundra Swan - 3 adults
Long-tailed Duck - 1 female
Glaucous Gull - 1 1st year
Great Black-backed Gull - 1 adult

Lesser Black-backed Gull - at least 5 (various ages)

Thayer's Gull - 1 juvenile

lots of grebes of 5 species (1 Clark's, no Red-necked)

lots of mergansers (lots of Commons, some Red-breasted and a few Hooded)

lots of goldeneye (only Commons that could find)

Lots of other birds.
