Poudre River Trail/Greeley

[The "Nunn Guy"]

Hiked from Island Grove trailhead until 25th Avenue.  Total of 39 species, highlights were:

 

Hermit Thrush

Common Yellowthroat

Yellow-rumped Warbler

House Wren

Blue-winged Teal (3-first time I've seen them on trail)

Snowy Egret

Black-crowned Night Heron

Chipping, Vesper Sparrow

Say's Phoebe

Cliff, Bank, Barn Swallow

Great Horned Owl mobbed by seven magpies

 

A lot of the adjacent gravel pits being expanded--lots of pelicans (40-ish) sitting on rocks in one of them.

 

Thanks Gary Lefko, Nunn
