Bunker Reservoir at Weld CR124 just west of CR77 has ample exposed mudflats and this afternoon hosted more than 80 shorebirds of 13 species, including 1 distant Stilt Sandpiper. Also several hundred waterfowl, all in cryptic eclipse plumage. Telescope required, but some shorebirds came close to the road. A photographer could have gotten killer shots of Wilson's Snipe, Least and Semipalmated Sandpipers, and Spotted Sandpiper.
