Bushtit observation, Larimer County

[Brad Biggerstaff]

With the recent discussions regarding the "black-eared" form of Bushtit, I paid more attention to the Bushtit wave this morning at Dixon Reservoir in west Fort Collins (Larimer County).  I was delighted to see at least one "partially black-eared" form in the flock, though I think there may have been a juvenile one as well (pale eye on that one).  I don't recall seeing this previously.  Here's a photo of one.

I greatly appreciate these kinds of discussions.

Cheers,
