Bobolinks, Rock Wrens Cherryvale Boulder Co.

[Richard Pautsch]

There were two male Bobolinks this morning in the meadows surrounding the big Cherryvale Trail parking lot (on the road to Open Space center), along with several "singing" Savannah Sparrows. (They have been at this spot around June 1 for several years) 

There was also a pair of very active Rock Wrens near the end of the Open Space area, just before the southern end of Cherryvale.  To find them, turn onto Cherryvale from Marshall Road, then pull over on the side of the road at the first gate onto the Open Space land (across from the old school/church).  Walk east along the fence fence line going up the hill to the canal, where there is a (wide) board bridge.  On the east side of the canal, walk diagonally uphill to the first small hogback area.
