Grasshopper Sparrows, Flatiron Vista, Boulder

[Eric DeFonso]

Hi folks,

I get a lot of good birding in while running lately. This morning I had a few (meaning probably at least 3) grasshopper sparrows singing by the trailhead at Flatiron Vista, south of Boulder along CO 93. According to ebird they hadn't been reported at that location before, so I thought it worth mentioning here.

I also had a flyby Lewis's Woodpecker along the spring brook loop, but further down the trail than I would have expected (not near the old burn area). Also had a flyby Coopers Hawk. 39 species total during my 11 1/2 mile run.

Good birding!
