The situation at the museum with the windows behind the feeders is not good. And sure enough, while we were there, a redpoll hit the window. The bird is still alive but has moderate head trauma and is now on route to a wildlife hospital. I urge people to contact the museum about putting up window alert stickers or at least some post it notes to prevent incidents.

--Birders,
Having received 2 calls this morning telling me I need to get to Ft. Collins to see the above mentioned bird that was seen and photographed by several birders yesterday, I made the dash and low and behold there are in fact, 2 or more Hoary Redpolls at the Discovery Museum in Ft. Collins on Cherry St. just west of College. I was surprised that no one posted this yesterday.
And just as icing on the cake, I finally found the Dipper that has been reported so frequently at Lowell Blvd and 55th on Clear Creek.
The I 25 corridor has quite a few raptors including Golden Eagle (just north of HWY 7), 2 adult Bald Eagles (one was perched on a power pole) on the east side of I 25 just north of HWY 7, Kestrel, Rough-legged, Red-tailed and Ferruginous Hawks (at Longmont).
