Hi John,

Thank you for sharing your list of spectacular birds.

It’s a shame that there appears to be no eBird reviewer for Alamosa County. I saw Snowy Plovers there on July 21 and posted lots of pics. https://ebird.org/checklist/S261799783

Nothing seen there in 2025 has been reviewed and approved. I know being a reviewer is a lot of work. I hope someone can fill in at some point.

Best regards, Peter Williams
