[cobirds] 4 Hummingbird Day--Lakewood-Green Mtn/Jeffco

This morning, in my backyard, I had all four male hummingbird species within an hour.  Two Calliope were joined by a Rufous, and several Black-chinned and Broad-tailed Hummingbirds.  This is always a fun time of the year when the colorful males are moving through!  On Saturday, I went up to Mt. Evans and had great looks at White-tailed Ptarmigan and Brown-capped Rosy Finches.  A walk around Echo Lake was extremely slow!!  Did not get any Gray Jays, Nutcrackers, or Steller's Jays!  Photos of the Ptarmigans, Rosy Finches, and Calliope can be seen below:
