A White-tailed Tropicbird was reported on eBird yesterday in Fruita. If only it were true. Here is the bird list. I got an eBird alert of this rare bird for this location in Fruita.

By clicking on the highlighted name of the person reporting the bird in the checklist you can see their profile.

As you can see Curtis is birding in Hawaii December 17-21st today. So it would be pretty hard for him to see a bird in Fruita. He obviously picked up the wrong location for his checklist. You can see his 10 most recent checklists on the right hand side of the screen.

So no need to drive crazy to the western slope. You would need to get to Hawaii to see this bird.

In the posters comments about the White-tailed Tropicbird, he says "Also of note is that I accidentally submited this checklist with the location being in Colorado so that's fun".

Fun?????

best bet for a WTTB:  Boat trip from Key West to Dry Tortugas, stay overnight, around April 23
