[cobirds] Parasitic Jaeger- only one previous record from Cherry Creek SP.or Arapahoe County.

Many thanks for Glenn Walbek for finding and photographing this mega-rarity!
Parasitic Jaeger (aka Arctic Skua) is rare in CO, and there is only one previous record from CCSP, also a juvenile, accepted by CBRC, with photos, from Sept 16-24, 1973.
Ref: "Bob and Bob," Colorado BIrds, Robert Andrews, Robert Righter, published by Denver Museum of Natural History, 1992). That record has not made it into the eBird database
yet, but will soon be added.
