Re: [cobirds] Garden Acres Park, Longmont, Boulder County

I've received multiple inquiries about where Garden Acres Park is.  Sorry I didn't think to include a link before.  Here is a link to it:

This afternoon upon bringing my son home from school, we stopped in Garden Acres Park to ride bikes around the parking lot on the NE side of the park.  While riding, I heard a lot of Yellow-rumped Warblers and Chipping Sparrows.  While chasing some of the Yellow-rumpeds hoping for an Orange-crowned, I stumbled upon a Black-throated Gray Warbler.  This bird started in the conifers on the southwest side of the northeastern parking lot, then taversed along the fence lines into Garden Acres park further toward the southwest.  I had to track down my son at that point otherwise, I would have stayed with the bird and hopefully snapped better photos.  Will be going back after dinner to take a look around and see if there is anything else fun out there.
