[cobirds] Re: No joy on the Denver County pyrrhuloxia 2/27

That gentleman was my photography parter Carl. We arrived at 7:15AM and were joined by a birder around :30. Carl and the other gentleman both saw the pyrrhuloxia but it was for a fleeting moment, not enough time to get a lock for a picture.

While I didn't see the pyrrhuloxia, I did have the wonderful pleasure of listening to it sing for about two minutes! I couldn't locate it while it sang. I did get pics of a spotted towhee in the brush next to the alley.

My wife Kristin and I spent about an hour from 8:30 to 9:30 this morning looking for the pyrrhuloxia in Denver County at the hotspot.  There were six or eight of us; one gentleman thought he saw it around 7:30, but a Cooper's hawk scattered the mixed flock of house finches, juncos, and black-capped chickadees, along with the pyrrhuloxia.

The flock started to move again around 9:00, but no pyrrhuloxia.
