Re: [cobirds] Chatfield SP and South Platte Reservoir 11/17

Gary,

Don't eat that crow (probably didn't trip the filter) yet.  It was funny.

Thanks, Sean.

It wasn't necessarily facetious, but more gentle humor, as I've had David (on eBird's behalf) question MY sightings.

But, you're right!  Who watches the watchers?

David, btw, I look forward to birding with you! 😃

Gary,

Even if meant facetiously, your question is a good one and one that I'm sure many eBird users would like to know the answer for. When it comes to data entry, eBird reviewers are in the same category as non-reviewers. Their records just get reviewed by other reviewers.

Sorry for the odd "post".  This was meant to be what I hoped to say!  And I would like to say, too, that I have all the respect in the world for David!

"Tripped the eBird filter" . . . .

So, do you question yourself?????

This morning as the snow let up Chatfield Reservoir had 3 Red-necked Grebes, 4 Common Loons, 1 adult Lesser Black-backed Gull, 2 Bonaparte's Gulls, 1-2 Bald Eagles, 1 Merlin, 1 Prairie Falcon, 2 Greater Scaup, and generally increased numbers of waterfowl (many flocks were flying around). A large portion of the birds (including all three Red-necked Grebes) were in or near a large flock of about 640 Western Grebes near the dam. The Common Loons were scattered as individuals here and there. A juv Northern Shrike was at the campground.

The two female Surf Scoters were still at South Platte Reservoir, underwater more than at the surface. They were in Jefferson waters when I arrived, but dove and swam their way over the Arapahoe side of the line. An adult Peregrine Falcon flew over the reservoir heading southwest.

Back home a straggling Audubon's Yellow-rumped Warbler visited the suet feeder in my yard, and unkowingly tripped the eBird filter for JeffCo.
