Re: [cobirds] Irruption of Dickcissels

I counted 21 individuals on my BBS route on May 30 down in SE Colorado.

I have seen more Dickcissels this year than any other, in El Paso and Lincoln Counties.  Typically I might encounter one or two but this year I have seen double-digits and some in locations I haven't found them before.

Yesterday while riding bike, I heard the unmistakable raspy chatter of Dickcissel near Monte Vista. Went back and found up to three just south of the MVCoop on the 2E. Today went out for some pics and there were two there and up to three on Swede Lane just north of Monte Vista. A friend also had one near Smith Reservoir, so it appears to be fairly widespread. Years like this contrast with most years where we have none. 

Are you seeing many in other parts of the State??
