Richard Stevens:
Bryan Ehlmann, Jacob Washburn, Ray Simmons and I explored Jackson County today. A drive down Jackson County Road 21, south of Highway 14, found seven Sage Thrashers and many Vesper Sparrows. Missed were Brewer's Sparrows and Burrowing Owls which have been found in past years.
Several dozen Common Redpolls were at the Finau home in Walden.
Three dozen Rosy Finches came to the Colorado State Forest Visitor's Center feeders. Unfortunately none were Black Rosy Finches.
We "rediscovered" the White-throated Sparrow at the Gould Store. We first found one on 10/17 and 10/21. There is no way to know if today's bird was the same one. Last month, one was reported at the Colorado State Forest Visitor's Center. Perhaps it is the same White-throated Sparrow moving back and forth along a four mile stretch?
On target bird was a Flammulated Owl. About two hours before sunset, we hiked/snowshoed to Pennock Pass (Larimer), then returned after dark (playing recordings along the way). No Flammulated Owls were found.
