[cobirds] Re: PURPLE SANDPIPER, CO

Brandon,

I was not participating in the CBC, but rather coming back from a day of skiing and stopped to check for geese on the reservoir!

Hi all,

My brother and I just saw a Purple Sandpiper on Dillion Reservoir, CO. The bird was foraging on the Blue River Arm of the Reservoir about 20 yds off of hwy 9 along a stretch of rocky shoreline/ice. It was dumping snow throughout the observation period and is supposed to continue to do so, making it unlikely for the bird to stay through the night. There is a pull off on hwy 9, less than 1/4 mile North of the Swan Mtn Road intersection that offers good views of this particular stretch of shoreline. I should be able to upload photos tomorrow night. 

Good Birding,

Jack Bushong, 

Louisville, CO
