[cobirds] Re: Long-tailed Ducks Jeffco/Douglas

I'm told they actually floated from Jeffco east into Arapahoe County, not Douglas. Can you tell I'm not a county lister? Hard enough just figuring out what birds I'm seeing.

I only post on CObirds if I actually see something interesting, which is why I haven't posted in quite a while  : )  But eight Long-tailed Ducks at South Platte Reservoir yesterday were an eye-opener. All appeared to be females or young birds that were just past juvenile stage. Hanging together in the far southwest corner (Jeffco) for great photos, many observers…a few would occasionally drift eastward into Douglas County so people could get all fired up about listing them in both counties.
