[cobirds] Re: Dickcissel, Teller Farm Open Space, E. Boulder County, 20 June 2013

Actually, *eight* of them there. The place is hopping with Dickcissels. The first 2013 Boulder County detection of which I'm aware was by Beth Partin, back on June 10th at Teller Farms (per eBird). The first for the state was an early bird on private property, Baca County, May 1st, recorded by Jane Stulp.

You can get all this info by playing around with the "Explore Data" tab in eBird.

Cool, eh? How much of that is biological reality? And how much of it is folks looking for FOY Dickcissels right around now?

A quick search of Cobirds didn't reveal any Dickcissel sightings yet this year. So here you go.
Yesterday, 20 Jun, 1030am, there was a singing male along the east-west irrigation ditch in the tall cottonwoods
.  This is near the same spot as in previous years.
(Note that Ted Floyd heard one in the same area on his big day which he mentions in his blog post which I just read before posting this sighting thinking that he may have had a Dickcissel.  I was out of the country for two weeks so yesterday was my first day back at Teller.)
