Hi all

Because we are in the "Dog Days" of summer gives us an opportunity to dream about rare birds we could see in Colorado during this fall migration.

The recent "Western Birds" has fanned the flames for potential new birds for Colorado. Here are just two possibilities to drool about.

The Purple Sandpiper has now been documented in Utah, November, 2012, Iowa, Oklahoma, Calgary, Alberta
The Topical Kingbird has now been documented in Provo, Utah, September, 2012

Good ones! I'm dreaming about White-tailed Kite for Colorado. Per eBird, seen in Lincoln County, Nebraska, 7/1/2008, and in Las Vegas, New Mexico, 4/15/2010.
What else for drooling?

I am completely with these potential new Colorado Birds... let's add Little Stint, Crissal Thrasher and Black-capped Vireo!

Thanks to Bob Righter for this fun parlor game. My offerings:

* a new species of White-breasted Nuthatch and a new species of Warbling Vireo... ;-)

Here, by the way, is a certain perspective on the "Dog Days" (which, officially, don't get under way in Colorado for another month):
