[cobirds] Boulder and Larimer 1/13

Hi Everyone--

I visited various places in Boulder and Larimer Counties today 1/13. The two
Trumpeter Swans were still at Lower Hoffman Lake in Loveland, sleeping on
the ice. I had a good view from the vacant lot near the end of Park Avenue
(from US 34, go north on Boise, right on Park, follow the signs to 7 Lakes
Park, go past the playground and look on the right). At Grandview Cemetery
in Fort Collins, a flock of about 100 Bohemian Waxwings flew over. ID was
mainly on voice, low and throaty compared to Cedars. In the upper reaches of
Ward, a flock of about 20 rosy-finches circled over me, but did not land.
The ones I could see well were Gray-crowned. At 2pm, it was snowing in Ward
with an air temperature of 2 degrees. Great weather if you're a rosy-finch.
