Hello birders,

There was a great number of new birds around today, mostly flycatchers and grassland species. 

Peter Gent called me around 4:30 with news of 3 adult WHITE-RUMPED SANDPIPERS at Duck Pond, part of Walden Ponds. 

On Gunbarrel Hill, I found 3 CASSIN'S KINGBIRDS and about 45 LARK BUNTINGS. Another CASSIN'S KINGBIRD was near the water tank on CR 66 in southern Boulder County. I didn't find any Grasshopper Sparrows on Gunbarrel Hill, which sort of surprises me. Could be the time of day I was out there, late afternoon. 

At my office (66 S. Cherryvale Rd), I just looked through a nice flock of Spizella sparrows that included 1 CLAY-COLORED, 4 BREWER'S, and 4 CHIPPING. 

Great birding,

Christian Nunes
