[cobirds] Rosy-Finches on Weld Rd. 128-Private Property

COBirders,

I previously posted about both locations for the Rosy-Finches on Weld Road 128 being on private property. 

The Rosy-Finches at the bluff on 128 are on private property owned by the Lazy D Grazing Association and are difficult to see unless you use a scope from the road which is the only access that is permitted. Road 128 is now being patrolled by law enforcement due to trespassing at the bluff site so I will ask everyone again to please stay off this private property. 

The finches are much easier to see and enjoy at the abandoned homestead on 128 (which is also private property.) The abandoned homestead where the finches are congregating is west of the intersection of 128 & 37. It is NOT the home at the intersection which is occupied. The best bet for seeing the finches is to stay in your vehicle on Rd. 128. Do not park in the driveway of the abandoned homestead as this is where the finches are coming to feed. They are very flighty and the smallest movement makes them fly off. 

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
