white throated sparrow - Stearns

[JohnT]

Cobirds:

               A chilly walk this morning at Stearns Lake in Broomfield \ Boulder County.

 

White-throated sparrow seen in hawthorn bushes along the main road near the raptor center, where irrigation ditch crosses the road.

 

Along with:

Dozens of white crowned sparrows - immatures and adults singing.

Song sparrows - singing

Red winged blackbirds - hundreds

Red tailed hawks - at least 5

Western grebes - still a few on the lake

Western meadowlarks

 

There are lots of sparrows moving through the area - someone with more time might find other species.
