The Rose-breasted Grosbeak in Colorado

The only record I can find for Zamelodia ludoviciana in the state is in Cooke's list; where a pair are recorded breeding at Longmont, Boulder Co. I now have the pleasure of recording a specimen taken in my own county (Larimer) by my cousin, L. E. Burnett, near Loveland on June 1, 1902. A pair were seen but only the male secured; this is now mounted and in his collection.

He also secured on June 7 a pair of western blue grosbeaks (Guiraca cærulea lazula) which is the most northern record for the state.
