R.E. Johnson 1969 Journal Jan.30 Boulder, Jefferson, & Clear Creek Counties, Colorado Rosy finches occupied these. I collected 11 australis & none of the other races, however tephrocesta & littoralis together made up 60 to 70% of the population. This was done at 4:45 PM when the sun had set behind the mtns but it was still light enough to identify the birds using binoculars inside the barn. With my entry into the barn & with each shot there was some reshuffling of birds from roof to roof. (Just prior to collecting in the barn above) We also visited Fairplay, a town further south of Rosy finches in South Park, where we saw a flock of perhaps 100 (the flock was often subdivided with parts out of sight) feeding at a bird feeder behind a house or sitting on the phone wires along the alley behind the house. Because of the lighting these were not identified. Other birds seen in South Park: Horned Lark Raven Magpie Golden Eagle - W. of Jefferson English Sparrow - Fairplay Due to high winds (blowing from the west mostly) South Park is not deep in snow except where obstruction cause drifting. The tops of the vegetation protrude through the snow.
