Update:

"Hi Gary, Yes, amazingly I did have a Parula in yard around 2:00 yesterday.  Haven't seen it yet today, was out most of morning. I am currently posting it on the Colorado Birding Society Rare Bird site.  I have quite a few photos taken from about 16-18 feet away, and am attaching a few of those. (will send in two emails, to keep size down.) I will write back if I see it again.  -C. G."


I have a few photos of it from her waiting to gain her approval to post below.


Thanks

Hi all

I got a call from one our scientists (and a birder of 50 years) indicating his spouse and her friend (both birders) had a Northern Parula in the yard an hour ago.  Trying to get details supposedly photos taken. Also, seeing if they allow visitors and/or at least a street and boundaries of neighborhood area.

Thanks

[cobirds] Brown-capped Rosy-Finches in Telluride

Hello Colorado Birders:

My family and I moved from New England to Telluride at the end of the summer and I have been anxiously awaiting the descent of rosy-finches. After 21 inches of snow over a 72 hour period, I finally got my wish yesterday. When I looked out the window this morning, the swarm had ballooned. 

I took a documenting photo through the window. If you are like me and enjoy honing your estimation skills, you can check out the image at: https://flic.kr/p/PdvXew and make a quick estimate.  I'll post the exact count in the comments in a couple of days. 

If you are anxious to know the total, you can view my eBird checklist at: http://ebird.org/ebird/view/checklist/S32809464

I carefully scanned through the flock several times and could not pick out any Gray-crowned or Black but I am sure that will change over the course of the winter. Looks like I will be going through a lot of hulled sunflower.

Good birding,
Eric

[cobirds] Re: Rusty blackbirds Cherry Creek State Park, Arapahoe Cnty

I saw them at the Pelican Point beach on 11/30 around 9am. They were along the beach headed out to the point and then flying back up into the trees. Another birder ID'ed them as Rusty and let me get a closer look at them through his scope (thanks Randy!). We were at the base of the tree and got a great look at them. 

Cheers!

Correction, it is more SW from previous report. I walked along the Wetlends area South and found it across from the cove, looking SW not SE.

Art Hudak & I viewed the 3 Rusty Blackbirds just before sundown in the Cottonwood right above the picnic table by the water.

Thanks to Cheryl for putting them out there!
