[cobirds] Pueblo County birding 7/28

I hadn't been out birding in Pueblo for a while, so since it was cool and cloudy this morning, I got out to look around a bit.  

At the east side of the Osprey Picnic Area in Rock Canyon, below Pueblo Reservoir dam, there was a singing Red-eyed Vireo (I was able to see it, to make sure it wasn't the other vireo that has red eyes).  

At the Pueblo West Gravel Pit, the female Common Goldeneye and female type Hooded Merganser that have been around all summer, were still there, also migrant shorebirds, American Avocet and Solitary Sandpiper, also a Redhead.  

After a quick stop at South Shore Marina at Pueblo Reservoir, where there wasn't anything of interest, I went over Pueblo City Park.  The Yellow-crowned Night-Heron, a Green Heron, a Yellow-billed Cuckoo, several Mississippi Kites, a few Red-breasted Nuthatches and Mountain Chickadees were all there.  It was a good day for seeing Pueblo birders too, as I saw six other birders out today, between City Park and Rock Canyon.  Van Truan got some photos of the Yellow-crowned Night-Heron this morning, which will be on his ebird checklist.
