[cobirds] Pueblo Reservoir, Pueblo County 22 Jan

Hi all,

I was able to join Joey Kellner, Dick Schottler, and Doug Ward for a full day of birding around Pueblo Reservoir and Valco Ponds today.

Pueblo Reservoir highlights:
Long-tailed Duck - 2
Short-billed Gull - 1 adult
Great Black-backed Gull - 1 adult
Lesser Black-backed Gull - 10+
Iceland (Thayer's) Gull - 3+
Bonaparte's Gull - 3
Yellow-billed Loon - 2
Red-throated Loon - 2
Pacific Loon - 1
Common Loon - 11+
Double-crested Cormorant - 3
Western, Horned, Eared Grebes continue
lots of Red-breasted Mergansers
Mountain Bluebirds
Loggerhead and Northern Shrike

Valco Ponds highlights:
Eastern Towhee - 1 female 
White-throated Sparrow - 1-2
Yellow-rumped Warbler - 2

A very fun cold day, though it was good to see what is still around, after the -19 degrees Pueblo had the other night.  The ice-line is still west of West Fishing Road.
