Re: [cobirds] Chipping Sparrows/Larimer

I also have a fall out of Chipping Sparrows but not as many as Rachel.  They are covering the ground under my feeders.
On a different note, my neighbor has a hole in their siding and a pair of Mountain Chickadee's have started building a nest in the hole.  I'm at 6000' and it seems low for a nesting Mountain.
Unfortunately, the neighbor's house is scheduled to be stucco'd so I told them they need to cover the hole while both Chickadees are out.  Not sure they have done that yet.

COBirders,

I had a pretty major fallout of Chipping Sparrows at Long Pond in north Larimer today. Mostly on the shore of the lake picking at the mud, they numbered in the hundreds. They were everywhere. It was really quite something to see. I did pick out one Clay-colored Sparrow among them.

As a side note, I was not able to get photos of the Common Gallinule yesterday. Quite a skulker as they always seem to be.
