[cobirds] Joe Roller Green Big Year topped 200 today!

All,
Once I recover I'll get a blog post written, but I was guilted into finally pulling the trigger and riding to First Creek at Green Valley Ranch (Denver Co) by Thomas Heinrich. His ride from Boulder last week for the Yellow-crowned Night-Heron was quite a bit longer than mine, but 31 miles each way was long enough for me! The night-heron was Green Year Bird #200! And what a sweet bird for that milestone. I also picked up 3 warbler species while there.  It was also really nice to relocate the Black-throated Gray Warbler for several folks (after John B telling me where he had it!). A huge thank you to all who met me there and make birding a new spot really fun. Great birding! 

On my way home, I picked up a few Chimney Swifts at Washington Park with a flock of swallows. The Joe Roller Memorial Green Big Year total is now 205 species. 108 miles ridden in two days.......zzzzzzz. I may also be eating all the food :)  

Good green birding!
