[cobirds] Re: Interesting Wind, Assorted Sightings in Golden

Two birds to add from today:

A juvenile Golden Eagle circling after dinner.

A probable (in pieces) Lincoln's Sparrow in the same spot as the dead Wilson's.

First, if you have not seen http://hint.fm/wind/ before, it shows wind speeds and directions on a map of the country.

Currently, there is a strong, nnw direction to the east of the front range. That seems conducive to grounding migrants from north and west of CO. Has anyone noticed this?

While I'm at it, a few birds of interest have been my first Ring-billed Gull and Common Raven on campus, a large group of American Robins on Friday, two apparent Cooper's Hawk migrants, and a Wilson's Warbler killed from window impact.

Enjoying the weather,
