Today Nick Moore took a tour of Weld County
The highlight was an adult NEOTROPIC CORMORANT late this afternoon (before the thunderstorms rolled in) along the entrance road to St Vrain State Park, in the large pond on the right, which is also inhabited by a long-staying Mute Swan. Photos were obtained. Also in this pond was a late Horned Grebe and pair of Canvasback
At Crow Valley there was
1 male AMERICAN REDSTART
1 OVENBIRD
1 PLUMBEOUS VIREO
6 Green-tailed Towhees
and a modest but nice assortment of normal migrants
At Lower Latham, on the reservoir there were 75+ Black Terns and a Common Tern (and a dozen or so Forster's)
Along the road at the s. edge of the reservoir there was a WHIMBREL
At Weld County Road 59 Pond the Cinnamon x Blue-winged Teal hybrid male persists
At Kodak SWA s. of Windsor there was a MONTANE White-breasted Nuthatch carrying food to a nest hole.
At Firestone Gravel Pits, a tardy GREATER SCAUP female
On private property, a very tardy MOUNTAIN CHICKADEE and a GLOSSY IBIS.
Good Birding
