Dear COBirders,

I'm new reporting to the list, just transplanted from California. Still learning what is worth reporting, so bear with me. 

On Dec 1 I enjoyed a ROUGH-LEGGED HAWK and FERRUGINOUS HAWK along I-25 in the vicinity of the Ludlow Exit. A juv. GOLDEN EAGLE was flying near Walsenburg. Raton Pass had a JUNIPER TITMOUSE and a flock of 18 PINYON JAYS. Just wow resident are the titmice? Do they move much in winter?

The PROTHONOTARY WARBLER continued at Centennial Park,

Today Dec 2 a SWAMP SPARROW was in a tule patch at Johnson Reservoir at Clement Park, and 2 juv. SNOW GEESE among the other geese on the water. A MOUNTAIN CHICKADEE was at Littleton Cemetery. A MERLIN flew over St. Mary Church at the end of the day.
