[cobirds] Pectoral Sandpiper -- Pueblo Reservoir, Pueblo Co. 6/5

Hi all,

I stopped by the southeastern corner of Pueblo Reservoir, Pueblo County today (5 June), where there were some shorebirds.  One Pectoral Sandpiper, four White-rumped Sandpipers, two American Avocets, and Spotted Sandpipers.  Yesterday (4 June), in the same location, I saw one Semipalmated and one White-rumped Sandpiper, as well as a few Franklin's Gulls.  At Sailboard launching area at Pueblo Reservoir yesterday, there were a few American White Pelicans and White-faced Ibis.  At the Reservoir in the past couple of days, there were some non-breeding California and Ring-billed Gulls, which I'm sure will be around all summer. 

In the Osprey Picnic Area, in Rock Canyon, today (5 June), I saw and heard a singing Least Flycatcher, also Western Tanagers and a Yellow-rumped Warbler.

Good birding,
