[cobirds] Boulder County: White-throated Sparrow, Red-necked Grebe

Hello, Birders.



This morning, Saturday, Sept. 29th, Hannah and I found a WHITE-THROATED SPARROW at the southeast corner of Greenlee Preserve, Boulder County. (This is equivalent to the north shore of rapidly rising Waneka Lake.) There are gazillions of seed-bearing weeds and White-crowned Sparrows in there. I imagine the place will be attractive to granivorous birds throughout the fall.



And right around noon today, Hannah and Andrew and I found an even 100 grebes at Lagerman Reservoir: 98 Western Grebes, 1 Pied-billed Grebe, and a nice RED-NECKED GREBE. Also, dozens of bluebirds in the general vicinity, most or all of them Mountain Bluebirds. But I wouldn't be surprised if other species are in the area.
