[cobirds] Late post, Yuma & Login County

Paula Hansley and myself birded a bit in NE CO. this past memorial day weekend.
 
To add to the already birds seen by Joe Roller, at Last Chance, Paula [I missed this bird], saw an American Redstart on 5/27, Washington County.
 
On 5/27, in Yuma County at Bonny Lake State Wildlife Area, we both saw and heard several Bell's Vireo. Several Baltimore Orioles, and Orchard Orioles were also seen. Red-bellied Woodpecker and many Red-headed Woodpecker were seen and heard. The lake is totally, totally, dry now, with Turkey hunting still going on.
 
On 5/28, in Login County, just before highway 138 at Tamarack Ranch SWA, in a small pond were 10 White-rumped Sandpiper, 3 Stilt Sandpiper, [thank you Steven] and 6, White-faced Ibis and ONE, Glossy Ibis.
At the SWA, ONE, Field Sparrow was seen and heard. We did not see any Cuckoos, unfortunately.
 
Happy Birding!!
