Re: [cobirds] Foothills birds continue to push East

I think it bears noting the change in location. The new yard birds are fascinating because folks across the front range are seeing birds in new areas they are familiar with and have been monitoring for years (i.e. their yards). Although these birds may not be far from their general range, the changes in habit are pretty interesting. Especially species that rarely visit feeders until weather warrants it actively visiting feeders so early this fall.

Thanks for sharing!

The Solitaire is regular out East fall through winter, particularly where there are planted junipers or other trees or shrubs with berries. I think the Pine Siskin is regular, as well.

Two new yard birds here at Quincy Reservoir: Pine Siskin and Townsend's Solitaire. Nothing too exciting given both species' abundance in the front range, but to see them this far East seems noteworthy, especially in light of all the other sightings of birds more typically expected in the foothills.

Happy birding,
