Re: [cobirds] Pine Warbler, Highlands Ranch, Douglas

Just a reminder that CO-Birds is automatically archived online for the entire planet to see, meaning you don't have to have a subscription to CO-Birds to see CO-Birds emails.

When people have interesting birds showing up at their backyard feeders, I think it would be a much better practice to say the city and then something like "Contact me privately for directions"

Of course we know that this sort of message is meant well, and birdwatchers are generally a great bunch of people...

... but the internet is full of unsavory types and broadcasting innocent emails saying "Here's my address, and I'm not going to be home at all this weekend" is not a good idea

Not meant to scold anyone, but not everyone who has access to CO-birds emails is as sweet as Great Aunt Betty who lives on the corner...

A Pine Warbler is coming to a feeder in Highlands Ranch. The feeder operators sent this message on Thursday, Jan. 22, about birders visiting to see the bird.

We do not mind your coming to see the bird, and people too.  We live at 6754 Blackhawk Ct. in Highlands Ranch.  We will be away this weekend but feel free to come any time including this weekend.  We see the bird in the morning from about 7-9 AM and again at feeding time in the late afternoon/early evening.  I just refilled the pine cone suet feeders this afternoon and the column feeder up in the maple tree in the northwest corner of our back yard.  The bush on the southwest corner of our house is where I have two pine cone feeders and this bird likes these best along with the high column feeder in the tree.  We do not have any other pets other than birds so the yard is safe to enter.
