EUROPEAN GOLDFINCH reported from Boulder on Dec 2 & 3

[Joe Roller]

Here is the note on the Colorado Rare Bird Alert, per Joyce Takamine, in case you missed it, as I did at first.

"On December 2 at Boulder Creek at 75th St, Steve Frye and his field trip reported Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, Swamp Sparrow and European Goldfinch.  The

Goldfinch was just west of the parking lot;  later in the day Chris Gilbert was about to relocated the goldfinch across Boulder Creek.  On December 3 at Boulder Creek and 75th St. Willem van Vliet reported European Goldfinch."

Please send any updates on this possible first state record to COBirds, so the news gets the widest circulation

possible.

Thanks,

Joe Roller, Denver
