I've been keeping casual track for 24 years, although I have gotten new birds when leading field trips up to my deck! (thank you)
I've seen 135 species (see habitat below), which includes a single ring-necked pheasant that I saw up here about 30 years ago, when my in-laws lived here. Favorite birds are mostly front range/decidous kinda birds, that are weird up here in Ponderosa Pine habitat. Snow Goose, the pheasant, Black Swift, Belted Kingfisher, Red- headed Woodpecker and Brown Thrasher the same day, Pinyon Jay (which many of you have seen here), Juniper Titmouse, and Rose-breasted Groseak Most memorable was probably the Canyon Wren that came in through the cat door, and woke us up harvesting dead flies in the inside window sills in our bedroom. I'm at 6,000 ft., in dry Ponderosa Pine habitat, with no water nearby.... so my list is very weak on water birds and warblers.
