Interesting timing - I had one at the (heated) birdbath in our back yard yesterday.

Hello Fellow Birders;

 

   Yesterday, while my wife & I were talking in our kitchen, we noticed a small gray bird on the concrete birdbath in the front lawn of our little townhouse home in western Centennial, near the intersection of Holly & Arapahoe.  My first impression was female Mountain Bluebird but it seemed too big for that.  So I referred to my bird ID books and determined it was a Townsend's Solitaire.  The big white eye ring was confirmation.  A new species of yard bird for me.

Keep Smilin',
