Varied Thrush in Weld County

[William H Kaempfer]

John Vanderpoel called me to say that he had just (about 10:30 a.m. on 11/23) had a Varied Thrush in Nunn, Weld County, at a park at Lincoln and 4^th.  Might have flown north a bit.

Hi all

We met up with John and Kelly--could not relocate--but Kelly has excellent photos! We drive around the town (not big at all if you come). We'll try later today (and the next and the next ...). Thanks for the tip Bill.

Thanks Gary Lefko, Nunn

Hi everyone,

This is my first post. Thank you for adding me! 

I'm Jenny, I live in Ault and I've caught the birding bug. I also volunteer at the Rocky Mountain Raptor Program in Fort Collins. 

I went up to look for the varied thrush in Nunn today and found it right where John and Kelly did: the SW corner of Nunn town park. It was there when I arrived at 10AM and stayed until at least 10:30. It is very willing to allow photos from the vehicle but less so if you are on foot. Photos have been submitted to eBird but not approved yet. They should appear on this checklist once approved: https://ebird.org/checklist/S76857913
Cheers!

Jenny

Regarding my photos-- For some reason they have been marked as unconfirmed by the ebird reviewer. I'm confused as to why. I'm quite certain of the ID and it was already seen at this location by someone else. I think this means that my submission doesn't get published publicly as well. Any ideas why this might have happened?

Thanks,

Jenny

Jenny,

All rare bird submissions to eBird are automatically marked as unconfirmed by the software.  After a reviewer has a chance to look at your documentation, he or she can then upgrade it to confirmed status if warranted.  Depending on the workload of the reviewers, who are all volunteers, this process could very well take a couple of days.  It's not necessarily a reflection of the quality of your report.

Even unconfirmed submissions should show up immediately in eBird's rare bird reports, though.

Regards,

Peter Ruprecht
