[cobirds] Mexican Duck at Pueblo City Park, Pueblo Co. 4/7

Hi all,

I believe there is a Mexican Duck at the Pueblo City Park pond this morning.  I'll put some photos of it, on my flickr site, in a bit.  Other highlights in Pueblo City Park this morning were:  a female Williamson's Sapsucker (perhaps the bird that was around in the winter), 20+ roosting Turkey Vultures, two Say's Phoebes (which I don't remember ever seeing in Pueblo City Park before), Red-breasted Nuthatches, Mountain Chickadees, lots of Pine Siskins, Bushtits, a few Yellow-rumped Warblers, and a couple of Townsend's Solitaries.  At Pueblo Reservoir in the north east corner, there were a small flock of American White Pelicans, and some Franklin's Gulls with the Ring-billed Gulls.  In Pueblo West, I saw my first Swainson's Hawk of the year.
