Yellow-billed Cuckoo?

[Marie Hoerner]

Hello all,

I was wondering if anybody has relocated the yellow-billed cuckoo that was seen in Chatfield SP yesterday, or if anybody knows where it was last seen.  It would be a lifer for me, and one that I've tried for in SE Colorado, Illinois, Florida, and Mexico without success.  Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Marie

Let us all know what you figure out, about Chatfield, please.

YB cuckoos can be found there most summers where the forest is most dense, between Kingfisher Bridge and Waterton Bridge,

closer to the latter. Look at e bird map for there to see where best and most dense habitat lies.

YB Cuckoos are found on almost every summer trip to Tamarack SWA, east of Sterling.

link to the e Bird data there:

Do you use the CFO County birding website?

That's a great  way to look up good locations for CO specialties like that bird:

Watch for ticks there!

Good luck
