Eastern "Lillian's) Meadowlark - Macintosh Lake - Boulder Co

[Ira Sanders]

Birders,

I stopped by Macintosh Lake this morning and did see what was most likely the "Lillian's" Meadowlark in the area of the haystacks west of Airport Rd.  It showed 4 outer tail feathers on each side when it flew.  I didn't get any other field marks though I probably heard the "chuck" call which was higher pitched than a Western's.

The Lillian's was further west around 3pm this afternoon.  It was associating with a small flock of Western Meadowlarks west of the trail in the BoCo open space.
