Re: [cobirds] Tønnessen's next?

Re: Baikal Teal and Variable Hawk. Yeah, what's up with that? I'd add Rufous-collared Sparrow to the list too. (Festering wounds...) Did y'all know that there are records from the U.S. Rocky Mountains in 2017 of both Variable Hawk and Rufous-collared Sparrow? I love vagrant traps up and down the I-25 corridor as much as any of you, but I also wonder if there's a bit of anti-I-25-vagrant-trap bias at play here.

I know! Tønnessen will find Colorado's first Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush! In the mountains. Of western Boulder County. At the CFO convention in May 2018. C'mon, David, we're counting on you.

If a Baikal teal shows up behind a Baskin Robbins in Evergreen, would it be a first Colorado record? (Picking scab off festering wound.)

Okay, so he found Colorado's first Tropical Kingbird in September, then Colorado's first Red-breasted Sapsucker earlier this month. At this pace, he's due 3 or 4 more state firsts in 2018. Any guesses?
