Observation details
Continuing. Photos. Insane! Immature bird found and reported on eBird yesterday, perched on a boulder just below the summit of Medicine Bow Peak. Quite tame; apparently unfazed by the dozen or so hikers summiting the peak and snapping cell phone picks from 30 or 40 feet. Appeared healthy: walked back and forth, spread its wings, and preened occasionally during the 20 minutes I watched it. I don't know anything about CACO ecology or biology, but it could have had a big carrion feed recently and just be hanging out on Med Bow while it digests?
