RE: [cobirds] Prairie Falcon, Walden Ponds, Boulder County

Thanks to Cara's reminder, I will also add my voice to this as I saw what is presumably the very same bird last Sunday.  This lovely specimen was perched atop a pole in the same vicinity and stuck around for 20 minutes or so.  

Not to rub it in (sorry, Cara!), but I also observed a Prairie Falcon several months ago from the Walden parking lot, where it was perched about 1/8 mile SE from where Cara and I recently saw it.  

While I'm here, I revisited the area today and spotted a Northern Shrike.  

Fun birding,

Despite how often I frequent Walden Ponds, and have for many years, I have never seen a Prairie Falcon there.  This morning, there was 1 on top of the utility pole between Wally Toevs Pond and Cottonwood.
