Dixon Reservoir, Larimer County

[Brad Biggerstaff]

I stopped by Dixon Reservoir in west Fort Collins this morning between 8:00 and 8:30.  The Redpoll fest continues, as I had a single Common Redpoll (female I think, as there was no red on the throat/breast) with a flock(s) of American and (yes) Lesser Goldfinches and House Finches.  These flocks were seen just south of the upper parking lot. The full list in that time:

 

Common Redpoll

American Goldfinch

Lesser Goldfinch

Black-capped Chickadee

Mountain Chickadee

Dark-eyed Junco

American Tree Sparrow

Townsend's Solitaire

Downy Woodpecker

Hairy Woodpecker

Northern Flicker

Common Raven

Black-billed Magpie

 

Cheers,
