[cobirds] Red Rocks North, Boulder County

Hello birders,

Luckily saw the Golden-crowned Sparrow at Teller Farms No. 5 parking lot around noon today. As I left I tossed some bird seed, like Red Rocks, into some nearby shrubs. But this Northwestern sparrow and its White-crowned buddies seem to be doing pretty well without bird seed, thanks to a barnyard nearby with lots of scattered seed, including some already half-digested by the horses and cows. 

What Teller Farms needs, to be a contender, is White-throated, Harris's, and Fox Sparrows, along with all five Juncos. Maybe next week! 

Walden and Sawmill Ponds were quiet except for a coyote, several Black-billed Magpies, and a good assortment of hawks. Beautiful sunny, winter-wonderland sort of day.
