Thanks for watching! Yes, that skyline drive is scary if you're afraid of heights. At least it's one way. There's soooo much to offer in and around the area, even if you're not a birder 😊

Yep! I was so disappointed they don't get their BBQ out until 8am. 😢

@johndoiron9615 Thanks for subscribing! 😊

@WanderingMonkHikes They are a great operation and phenomenal upclose views of the males showing off and sparring in hopes the hen's watching. Have fun and thanks for subbing. I did likewise to your channel.

Thanks, I was actually sweating 😂 with 16°. I think the whole country's in this polar vortex.

@dnasbirdingadventures we are wearing jackets in Phoenix. I always enjoy a hike in the snow. It has been a while.

​@TrekkingwithDebandMike I think northern Florida's expecting snow too.

@@TrekkingwithDebandMike we sure love that area! Florence River Park is one of our favs. We lived in Manitou Springs about 35 years ago and miss it.

@ChrisMitchellPhoto yea, that's the closest we've ever been to one. Colorado actually has the desert and the Rocky mtn. Bighorn Sheep. I read that the Rocky mtn are in this area, so I'm pretty sure that's what it was. Thanks for commenting.

Ha! I saw that auto correct and thought maybe it was a weird type of Dark-eyed Junco! I live in southeast Denver, I'm just getting into birding, and came across your videos. I appreciate the names. I struggle enough with the common names so I don't really pay attention to the scientific names (yet). I'm curious which editing app you use?

​@@memog9416 Thanks for tuning in. We try to include some educational info to continue learning ourselves. I like my iPad pro and they have a pretty good movie editing program called final cut pro. So far I like it. Let us know of some your birding spots in your area we've missed. Thanks and happy birding.

Aw, thanks for your kind words. How exciting to be retiring! We love Colorado too but have found there are hidden treasures everywhere we travel. Happy birding and maybe we'll see you on the trail someday.

@hikeandhearthTV 😊 Thanks! Actually, we weren't feeling well as much as we wanted to head out. I think this is the first time we missed Jan.1st birding on probably 25 years. It worked out well though. Thanks for watching and HAPPY birding!

@hikeandhearthTV Thanks..I added your channel too. I love your environmental messages. Also, we're excited to head out east for birding there soon. It looks beautiful. I'm working on part 2 in Cañon City now.

@@thesecretthirdthing Thank you for the compliment. Looking back, I believe we're a bit obsessed with birding 😆.

@dnasbirdingadventures haha, you're inspiring a generation of obsessives. I'm already planning out my future big years!

That's exciting to see a Loon! They're usually so far away, only a scope brings them into view. Colorado is great for birding. We hope to get some new CO spots this year. There are many we haven't explored. We just love being out in nature, so hopefully, your husband will see some advantage in joining you. Happy birding and thanks for tuning in! 😊

Oh, and, thanks for the info on Marston State Complex. It looks pretty birdie! I bookmarked the website.

Thanks! They're all over the rivers in Colorado. Happy birding!

They really are! There’s something about them that's just so charming 😊. My videos of them were a bit too long. Sorry, not sorry 😅

@@TrekkingwithDebandMike those early mornings can be ridiculous sometimes.

@@skierdoc9861 😆 🤣

@Soundwrecker thanks! We always seem to run into interesting situations. The bait ball was one of those times.

Thanks! I thought that's what added to our allergies. Well, maybe not. 😆 Thanks for the comment and watching. Happy birding!

@SteveWelborn oh, thank you! 😊 I'm glad you enjoy them. They're a lot of work to put together, but love every minute birding. Thanks for watching and I appreciate the comment. Happy birding!

Actually, the muscovy was fine. It didn't want any of the duckweed to stick to the feathers. We saw him exit and shake it off. A little white, yes...probably domestic. Thanks for noticing and watching. 😊

@TrekkingwithDebandMike 😆 we STILL haven't added them all up yet. It was pretty phenomenal birding. It's time-consuming enough just putting the videos together. It's a good thing we love it. How do you manage your travels AND videos?

@dnasbirdingadventures I am a month behind, and we head to Mexico next week. I just do a little each day and see what happens. They are pretty short, mostly for our memories. I couldn't do much longer versions.

@@TrekkingwithDebandMike You have to do what's manageable. I'll have to watch more of your videos. Have fun in Mexico!!

@Chris_Wolfgram Thanks for the comment and watching! That's also where dave got his Least Grebe as a Lifer last time we were there with all the ❤️ spring mating going March, 23. Here's that video if you're interested in more reminiscing. It also includes Bentzen State Park that am. Wow, 2k miles. We live about that far away in Colorado. Happy birding. ua-cam.com/video/MbQ0QZSDcaE/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

@dnasbirdingadventures oh, I would have forgotten.... I got the Least Grebe too. It was just a heavy crop, plus backlit, so I couldn't really use it ☹️ ... Oh, that was on the pond right before Alligator Pond 👍

​@Chris_Wolfgram I think it's called Grebe Pond, fittingly. That's where we saw the Least Grebe couple too last year.

❤️ Nature's incredible! Well said. Thanks for tuning in

❤️ We learned there are over 250 species down there. I loved the puppy dog face one.

😅

I know, right? What an amazing place.

@@TrekkingwithDebandMike Thanks! Those Pauroques were in almost the same spot as last year. Dave owes me an ice cream for finding them first 😆 (a little bet beforehand).

@dnasbirdingadventures lol, you didn't have to go to Africa to see them.

​@@TrekkingwithDebandMike😅

@Velotooslow shhhh....don't tell 😆, but we saw one at Edinburg at the end of our trip. Thanks for letting us know, though. We absolutely LOVED Edinburg! It's small, right in town, but such a treasure. We also heard the Ringed at Santa Margarita Ranch. Thanks for tuning into our video!

Yes, they have the slow type writer movement too 😆, so cute! I wish it was the Am. Woodcock, since we don’t have one this year. Also, look at the markings on the back, longer beak, as well as the barred flanks (you can kind of see in the close video). The Am. Woodcock is from Houston and east too, but it’s possible. Let me know what you think. Thanks for feedback, commenting and watching too!

I was thinking the same thing.

​@douglaswetzel3221 I haven't ever seen the snipes do the bouncing dance until this bird. After reading a few articles, they dance too. Also checked Sibleys, Merlin, and others about markings, distribution and habitat between the woodcock and snipe. This one was closer to the water and woodcocks like higher ground. Weird... Dave had the 1st thought of a woodcock too until looking closer. Appreciate your thoughts and comments. 😊

@TrekkingwithDebandMike yes, thanks! Texas is a great place for birding, We're still trying to count them all 😆. Happy trails and thanks for watching!!

@@TrekkingwithDebandMike lucky you!! They are gorgeous 😍

@TrekkingwithDebandMike Thanks for tuning in, and yes, it was very birdy, especially at the Redondo Campground.

@TrekkingwithDebandMike YEs, it's tempting to move back to NM and out of CO. We'll see! Where were you in CO?

@dnasbirdingadventures Woodland Park. We loved it but enjoy full-time travel.

Thanks! Dave's getting pretty good at capturing birds flying

Glad you enjoyed it!

@@stanburman9978 You’re welcome & thanks for watching. I have one more video from Feb. of this year that may help even more. In December, you’ll have Snow Geese and Sandhill Cranes in different ponds for the “BLAST OFF” in the am since they aren’t usually together roosting. I chose the Snow Geese since we had witnessed the Sandhill blast off in Kearney, NE already. There were 1000s of Sandhill cranes in the fields between Alb. and Bosque during the day already last month. Here’s a Feb. video with a better idea of all the birds you’ll see in Dec. ua-cam.com/video/MU28LKUnWBo/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

@@dnasbirdingadventures Thanks so much. Have watchedd the other video. Excellent! And a big help.

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and happy birding!

That's interesting.

It’s amazing how nature can surprise us, even in the desert!

It sounds like the park's rules have changed quite a bit, maybe because of the bases nearby. It was our first visit and probably not our last. Thanks for tuning in to our channel. Happy birding!

Thanks! They very well could be. I'll have to look further. Happy birding and thanks for tuning into our channel.

@@HighDesertSpirit459 Glad you enjoyed it! We're still learning birds.

Yay...We've been seeing quite a few in New Mexico on our travels. 3.5k reported in the refuge by Roswell. They're so exciting to watch and hear as they fly by. Thanks for watching and happy birding.

@@S1159836 thanks! Were you racing?

Hi. Thank you for watching. They've changed ownership and now have limited entry and reservations. Happy birding.
