[cobirds] lots of birds on the move

With the unsettled weather, there's been a lot of diurnal migration this morning over the CU-Boulder campus and adjacent Boulder Creek.  Probably 150 birds flew over my head at treetop level in the past 90 minutes, all heading north.  The majority were Spizellas, as far as I could tell, but there was also a White-crowned Sparrow, two Western Tanagers, and two unidentified kingbirds.  None of these birds was inclined to sit around for long, but the weather seems to be making for some exciting birding today, at least along the Boulder foothills.
