[cobirds] Golden-crowned Sparrow - Red Rocks

The Golden-crowned Sparrow made a very brief appearance this morning behind the Red Rocks Trading Post. It seems the best bet for viewing this bird is to arrive by 7:00 and ante up some fresh birdseed -- the activity this generates with Scrub-Jays, Juncos (5), Towhees, Chickadees & finches may lure him out...

Also observed was a yellow variant House Finch. Being new to Colorado, I don't know how common a siting this is. Photos are posted on Flickr for anyone interested, see link below.
