June 13, 2015 Saturday Bird Walk
Sunny and warm. 70°F. 2-5 mph. 20 participants.

I hadn't really seen a blue grosbeak this year, so we headed to Sage Trail at Boulder Valley Open Space. This trail is what I consider the best place to find blue grosbeak in Boulder County. Check out the Bird of the Day to see our results. We also spotted a pair of orchard orioles which seem to be more common this year. Check out the slide show to see what we saw.
