Re: [cobirds] Bushtit -- black-eared Arapahoe Co.

I saw one last fall at Waneka Lake in Boulder County. This link should take you to the subspecies map in eBird. You likely need to click something like "search all species" to add it to your list. Looks like there are only a handful of reports in Boulder County and one near Durango.

Thanks,

Had a melanotus (black-eared) bushtit today.  I don't know how rare these are, but this is the first one I've seen in Colorado.  eBird doesn't have that listed as a subspecies on its checklists so  it's hard to know how common they are.  But it was lovely to see.
