[cobirds] Some JeffCo birds and a couple from Douglas

A hatch-year Harris's Sparrow has been visiting my yard in Ken Caryl Valley from Nov 5-7. A Northern Harrier passed over my home at sunrise this morning. I love watching the skies near home in the early morning, as you never know what will show up. Sometimes nothing unexpected, but often enough there is some avian treasure that makes it worth the lookout.

Harriman Lake Park had 3 Harris's Sparrows this morning (1 adult, 2 HY) and some Hooded Mergansers. Hine Lake at Robert A. Easton Regional Park had my first Cackling Geese (19) and Greater Scaup (2) of the season. 

A Northern Shrike was along the entry road for Roxborough SP, overlooking Aurora Rampart Reservoir. The reservoir had few birds, but I enjoyed watching an energetic party of Common Goldeneye.
