[cobirds] Denver CBC initial tally and a FIRST for the Denver CBC!

A good number of hardy souls participated in today's Denver CBC. The initial tally is 109 species!  Not bad for a day starting with 6-8 inches of snow on the roads and a below zero to single digit highs!

Highlights included:
    Ross's Goose
    Dunlin (near McClellan Reservoir)
    Lesser Goldfinch
    All three species of Rosy Finch
    Audubon's Warbler
    Say's Phoebe
    Brown Thrasher
    White-throated Sparrow
    Harris's Sparrow (multiple)

The Denver CBC has been held annually since 1954 and this year we added a new species!  One of the Chatfield groups found a GRASSHOPPER SPARROW!!

You never know what might turn up when you go out birding.  :-)
