Richard Stevens:
Terry Michaels and I conducted surveys in Weld County WIAs for two days. At times, rain and high winds limited sightings.
Highlights: all three species of longspurs (dozens McCown's, four Chestnut-collared and two Lapland) were encountered. We covered fourteen Walk-In-Areas with grass cover over the two days. These areas were around Stoneham, CO.
Misses: no owls, no Mountain Plovers and no Upland Sandpipers. Shorebirds may have already departed from southern wintering grounds.
