There is no rare birds in this report. I am simply reporting a moment of avian joy in Mueller state park, south west of Woodland Park.
I was walking around a pond on the dragonfly trail (a children's trail). It was early evening and initially no birds were heard. Five minutes into the walk there was an eruption of activity that really surprised me. There were all three nuthatches, mountain chickadees, downy woodpecker, a raven and, according to Merlin, evening grosbeaks. ( I heard them but never saw them so I didn't report them on eBird.)
The gathering disappeared just as quickly as it appeared. It was such a magical moment for which I was immensely grateful.
