Red Fox Sparrow-Loveland-Larimer

[Josh Bruening]

All,

The feeders on Swainsona drive in Loveland that, since this fall, has hosted several good birds added another today.  For those who are not aware, there has been a Canyon Towhee there for months and was still present as of 2 days ago according to the homeowner.  The striking male Purple Finch is in his 3rd week there and I was finally able to grab photos of him today as well as a Red Fox Sparrow I found this morning but did not get good photos of until this afternoon.  The homeowner is most gracious and gets just as excited as we do about the birds.  I have pasted my Ebird checklist with photos below.  As always, please be respectful if you check out this neighborhood.  It's a great spot.  Several "FOS's" happening in Larimer County this past week.  Yay Spring!!!
