Loveland's 16th annual Christmas Bird Count was held on Jan 1. We had 60 participants (in 20 teams) and tallied 99 species (3rd highest). An additional 5 were observed during Count Week. New for the count were American Woodcock and Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. New high counts were reached for Glaucous Gull (2), Northern Saw-whet Owl (14), Great Horned Owl (35), Bushtit (89), Golden-crowned Kinglet (10), Eastern Bluebird (6), and Song Sparrow (90). Overall number of individual birds was average. Special thanks to our supporters and sponsors: the City of Loveland Open Lands office, Larimer County Natural Resources Department, Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch, Heart J Center for Experiential Learning, Quetzal Tours and Fort Collins Audubon Society. And many thanks to our participants and team leaders.
