[cobirds] 11 sandhill cranes Ft. Lupton (Weld) 1:00 pm

Since I missed the big crane flights earlier this month ( out of town), I was excited to see

And hear 11 cranes circling and then heading south while golfing today.   They should have

Passed over Aurora/Stapleton about 1:20 or so, I’m guessing.

 

Unrelated note:   Since 2002 or so, I’ve only seen 7-15 pinyon jays up here.   (In 2001, I believe,

We counted 205 up here on a BBC field trip).   Two days ago, at least 50, and probably 70+ dropped

in on a foraging raid.   Hoo hoo!
