Hey, all.
Moments ago this mild Fri. morning, Nov. 3, I got back in from a quick check of the cackling goose mothership flock on Waneka Lake, Boulder Co., where I discovered that, somehow, a single red-necked grebe had gotten swept up into the mighty anserine throng.
"Fortunately," the mass ascension of geese went down (or went up, I suppose) as I was leaving, and there is just a single, rather obvious, red-necked grebe out there right now.
In a COBIRDS twofer, let me also use this opportunity to say that the November installment of the monthly "Lafayette Birds!" activity is upon us. We'll meet this coming Sun., Nov. 5, at "The Shack" at Greenlee Wildlife Preserve; we'll get underway at 1pm. And don't forget to "fall back"! Lots of stuff still at the preserve & environs: passerines hanging on; a few shorebirds still; ducks galore; geese galore-to-the-galore; and more. All are welcome; no RSVP needed; no experience necessary; just show up at (or slightly before) 1pm—and we'll be on our way!
