[cobirds] American Golden-Plovers and Dunlin in Bent County

Birders,

Despite the record-breaking cold and snow earlier this week, shorebird
migration is still in progress in SE Colorado. Today, I observed two
American Golden-Plovers (foraging and in flight) and a Dunlin at Adobe
Creek Reservoir (Blue Lake). They were on the north side of the south
lake associating with at least 10 species of shorebirds. From the east
side of the lake, west of the boat ramp, look for a two-track heading to
the channel separating the north lake (mostly in Kiowa County) and the
south lake (entirely in Bent County). Drive south as far as you feel
comfortable, and scan the north end of the lake. A scope will be helpful.
