[cobirds] Scissor-tailed Flycatcher at Van Bibber Park, (Jeffco), but farther west

Expecting to make birding history by being the first birder NOT to see the legendary ST Flycatcher,

I walked a good half mile west of the parking lot, which lies just east of 58th Avenue and on the west

side of Ward Road, a few miles  north of I-70.

In fact it took some looking and some luck, as the bird was hiding in Russian Olives, near the place

where the concrete footpath crosses Van Bibber Creek. This is way west of the yellow fireplug. I took some advice posted earlier and walked

along the horse path that follows the fence which is north of the footpath. Access to this horse trail is from the 

north side of the parking lot. A juvy Western Kingbird was near the Scissor-tailed.

Good luck.
