Long-tailed Duck, Barrow's at Union Reservoir (Weld)

[Bill Prather]

There was a male Barrow's Goldeneye with the large group of Mergansers, Goldeneyes and Grebes at Union Reservoir about noon Sunday.  Several male Red-breasted Mergansers in the mix.  The female Long-tailed Duck that has been present for about a week is still easily seen from the road on the south side, loosely associated with the coot flock.  Also the Say's Phoebe found by Ted Floyd's group was working the west side of Jim Hamm Park, across the county line in Boulder County.  Bill and Inez Prather, Longmont
