[cobirds] Sand Creek Say's Phoebe

I joined Mike Serruto, Nina Routh, Greg Smith and Greg Goodrich for a couple of miles of walking and counting along Sand Creek between Quebec and Havana this morning. We had great numbers of the usual suspects, including lots of beautiful hooded mergs, a nice variety of red-tails including one dark morph and a few other goodies.  However, the only bird of real note was a very late (overwintering?) Say's phoebe which was flycatching (or maybe flyhunting- I can't imagine it was catching much, but maybe Dr. Leatherman can comment on that) from perches in an open field along the creek.
