[cobirds] Lamar Community College (Prowers Co) CO 20May2017

Despite winds, barking dogs, sirens and music from festivities at the park, I saw/heard a total of 27 species during my late morning visit to LCC, today.   Of most interest were:  1 juvenile Broad-winged Hawk being harassed by Western Kingbirds; 3 Northern Cardinals all in different parts of the woods, and 11 Brown-headed Cowbirds patiently waiting for some unsuspecting nesting female to leave just long enough....

I also saw 4 Yellow Warblers, 2 Wood Ducks, 1 Blue Grosbeak, a Western Wood-Pewee, and all three doves, Eurasian, Mourning and White-winged.  (The White-winged is something I don't see at LCC very often.)  Was hoping to see/hear a late warbler, a Yellow-billed Cuckoo or find a vireo, but no such luck.  

At my home in the Willow Valley subdivision, I have both male and female Black-chinned Hummingbirds and a singing Yellow Warbler.  Thank you.
