[cobirds] Spring has sprung, Boulder Co., 3/29

Spring is sprung
The grass is ris'
I wonder where
The birdies is

Hello, Birders.

Just a moment ago (Sat., Mar. 29), I stepped outside the house (Lafayette, Boulder County), and heard the sweet whistling of a Say's Phoebe and the rich, nasal cries of northbound Franklin's Gulls (n=9, visual). And yesterday afternoon, Fri., 3/28, a Bushtit was singing on the west edge of Greenlee Preserve. The briars and tangles there look good for nesting, and I wonder if there will soon be a large, gray tube-sock hanging from deep within the shrubbery.
