[cobirds] Long-billed Dowitcher, etc., Boulder County, 3/30

Hello, Birders.

Cottonwood Marsh, Walden Ponds, Boulder County, was decently birdy yesterday afternoon, Sunday, March 30th: an Osprey or two, a Greater Yellowlegs, a swirling mass of Tree Swallows, and an early Long-billed Dowitcher. Over at nearby Boulder Creek, there were three pairs of Wood Ducks.

The birding was good, but the real pleasure for me was spending some time with Colorado birding legend Bob Spencer on the occasion of the last day of his 9th decade of life. Today Bob starts decade #10. Happy Birthday, Bob!

Here's a photo tribute to the occasion: http://tinyurl.com/Bob-Spencer/Walden
