[cobirds] Sprague's Pipits, Yuma County, 10/13

Hi all,

I accompanied the CU Boulder Birding Club on a trip for Sprague's Pipits at the traditional spot near Hale in Yuma County. We had at least 5 Sprague's (I think more), with our first scope views of a bird on the ground after only a couple minutes of searching. I've never had such good luck with the species before!

We then spent a little time in northwest Kansas, where the highlight was the long-staying Curve-billed Thrasher southeast of St. Francis. We finished the day below the dam at Flagler SWA, where the best bird was a juvenile male Red-naped Sapsucker. Flagler had nary a warbler, but lots of Chipping Sparrows and Sandhill Cranes, a Townsend's Solitaire and a Swamp Sparrow.

Good birding,

Nathan Pieplow

Boulder
