[cobirds] Curve-billed Thrasher CR 17, northeast of Siebert, Kit Carson Co 7/17

A highlight for DFO's eastern prairie trip on 7/17 was a Curve-billed Thrasher at a ranch yard northeast of Siebert in Kit Carson County. It was along CR 17 at the only ranch yard between CR W and Hwy 24, on the west side of CR 17. We obtained photos.

eBird shows only 3 prior records for Kit Carson County (perhaps there are others not in eBird): 11/1/16, 4/6/17, 4/11/17. There are even fewer shown for adjacent counties of Lincoln and Cheyenne, all from April and early May, except one from 7/6 in Cheyenne Co.

In the same region, there were at least 16 Burrowing Owls (many juv) in a large prairie dog colony at CR 13 just north of CR  V, west of Siebert.
