Sabine's Gull and Scoters at Miramonte (San Miguel County)

[Eric Hynes]

Hello Colorado Birders:

Katie Triest, Joe Cullen and I enjoyed a chilly but beautiful morning birding around Miramonte Reservoir in San Miguel County today.

Topping the list was a beautiful first winter Sabine's Gull. Lots of ducks and grebes were on the water as well. Highlights included two Barrow's Goldeneyes, a drake Redhead, four White-winged Scoters and four Surf Scoters.

Good birding,

Eric
