Quick Trip to Barr Lake

December 11, 2007

I braved the snowy and icey roads and drove over to Barr Lake (Adams) but did not find much.

A few White-crowned Sparrows and Dark-eyed Juncos came to the Visitor Center's feeders. No Harris's Sparrows (yet) this year. Roads were snow covered; temps cold. If there are any uncommon birds around, I would think the feeders would attract them?

And where are the Goldfinches? I have noticed that the past two weeks, no Goldfinches have come to the thistle feeders? Were they on the CDC "West Nile hit list" also?
