[cobirds] Denver CBC

The Denver CBC was held on Saturday, December 20th with an initial tally of
104 species!

Highlights were:

Yellow-billed Loon - 5th time on count (out of 61 consecutive counts) -
still present at Chatfield with MANY people adding this species to their
state or year lists

Hermit Thrush - 5th time on count - along Bear Creek east of Wadsworth

Sora - 3rd time on count - Bear Creek greenbelt (Stone House area)

Williamson's Sapsucker - only the 2nd time ever on the Denver CBC - 1 female
at Fort Logan Cemetery

Other notables were Fox Sparrow (red race photographed below the dam at
Chatfield, interestingly not seen at Red Rocks Park), 8+ Rusty Blackbirds in
3 locations, 2 Say's Phoebes, Northern Saw-whet and Northern Pygmy Owls,
Lesser Goldfinch, Barrow's Goldeneye, Greater Scaup and Black-crowned Night
Heron. Not to mention the Count Week birds still being found!

Some nice birds and (later in the day) nice weather!

Thanks to all the participants (140+) who participated.
