Hey, everybody. I heard and saw (and audio'd and photo'd) an eastern meadowlark at Greenlee Preserve, Boulder County, earlier today, Friday, Apr. 7. Other birds at and around the preserve included wood duck, hooded merganser, black-crowned night-heron, greater yellowlegs, Say phoebe, American bushtit, Audubon warbler, dark-eyed junco, and spotted towhee. eBird checklist, including meadowlark media, here:

Hi, folks. Several people have asked me offline for precise directions to the meadowlark, so I might as well post a response online. The bird was here:

39.995462 North, 105.116205 West

a.k.a. 39° 59' 43.7" North, 105° 06' 58.3" West

It was in a field just west of Waneka Lake, i.e., southwest of Greenlee Preserve proper.
