Cobirds:
As reported by others, the common redpolls continue at Baseline Reservoir in Boulder, though in lesser numbers than yesterday. About 30 were seen this morning. Go to Cherryvale Road on the west side of the reservoir and scan the weed and sandy patches.
Also at Baseline Reservoir - there are now 8 tundra swans, adults and immatures.
And: the lone white pelican was joined by 9 more at Baseline. Now he won't be so lonely. This is darned late for pelicans.
And: The Northern Cardinal persists along the Dakota Ridge Trail. Great looks today. Follow Hawthrone St. in north Boulder to the end, where there's a little parking area and trailhead. Walk upslope past the "Y" in the trail to the cement pumphouse about 100 yards. The male cardinal will response to an immitation song if you can whistle it. It's staying in dense thickets of skunkbrush and mountain maple, above and below the trail. There are also ruby crowned kinglets and juncos here.
And: Lots of duck species at the following locations: Walden, Pella Crossing, Sombrero Marsh, and Clover Basin. Includes a ruddy duck at Pela, and canvasback in several locations.
Cold front moving in tomorrow. If you are lucky enough to be out in the north east plains, some rarities may appear.
