FYI this local rarity was originally reported on the Fort Collins Audubon Society facebook page by Daniel Stangeland, a birder visiting from Florida who probably hasn't heard of COBIRDS. Thanks to Daniel and congrats to David Wade, who hopefully won't be the last local to find this gem.

Trough a series of texts, email, and Facebook posts I heard of a possible Scissor-tailed Flycatcher in northern Larimer today. I was a little pessimistic about finding it because of my late start but was lucky enough to find it. It's about a half mile north of Ted's Place (hwy 287 and 14 or the Poudre canyon turnoff). That's where 287 makes a 90 degree turn to east. It was perched in the dead trees above a farmhouse on the north side of the highway. This all private land but it can be seen from a pull off of the highway there.
