[cobirds] Eastern Towhee, Adams Co.

Folks,
 
My daughter Nicole and I went looking for Snowy Owls north of Barr Lake this morning.  We found no Snowy Owls, but we did find a female Eastern Towhee.  The bird was along 160th Avenue, about a mile east of I-76.  It is in front of a house with several large junipers in the front yard.  The house is on the south side of the 160th.  The towhee flew out of that yard into the brush lining a small watercourse on the north side of 160th.  This is all just east of where 160th crosses that drainage.  We were able to view and photograph the bird from the road.  There are no trespassing signs on the north side of the road, the south side is someone's yard.  http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist?subID=S12778212
