[cobirds] American Golden-Plover Union Res Weld

I made a stop at Union Reservoir on the way down to Denver this afternoon to see if I could find any ducks or raptors. I came across a nice group of a variety of species including various yet distant poorly lit geese, ducks, killdeer ect. I noticed a plover type bird and realized an American Golden Plover had been seen here in previous days. This seems to be the same bird. This is the, from what I understand, the Northeast end of the res. Let it be known I would have had no chance at identifying this bird as more than a black bellied/american golden due to distance had it not been seen here very recently. Ebird report and bad photos coming soon.

Also you know the busyness (and laziness) of college is real when a Gyrfalcon shows up five minutes near your house in Larimer county and it takes you a week to find out. Maybe next time.
