CObirders,
I drove over to the intersection of South Boulder and Cherryvale Roads and was thrilled to see and hear at least a dozen Bobolinks!! I think there are probably more, because I could hear some singing in the grass from a small pull-off along Cherryvale Rd.
What an amazing sight— seeing several male Bobolinks displaying at once. I had forgotten how high a male will fly up into the air and then flutter down towards the ground while singing!
The Bobolinks were in the field SE of the intersection of these roads, at least 100 m south of South Boulder Road.
I also heard two Wilson’s Snipes giving their “ticking” calls from a wet area (darker grass) along Cherryvale.

I saw a bobolink fly across the bike path last night 5:50 PM roughly in
Chatfield State Park. I was riding the bike path next to C-470, going West
near the large washout area, riding up and over the dam, when one flew
across the bike path right in front of me. I did not see a pair and since I
was birding by bike, it took me a few seconds to comprehend what I had seen
so when I stopped to look some more he/she was gone.
