  It's time to count birds again, and we don't mean your Thanksgiving and Christmas turkey dinners. The Audubon Society of Greater Denver, in conjunction with local Audubon groups around the nation, is asking its members to count the birds they see in their back yards on New Year's Day - a tradition going back 109 years in some parts of the country. "We ask you to report each species which comes to your feeder and yard, and the total number of individuals -- don't count the same ones twice, but

• Get ready for the Gunnison sage grouse

  The Waunita Lek near Gunnison, mating grounds for a large group of Gunnison sage grouse, is open for public viewings, and bird watchers will have good news to share with the rare species, which puts on an unusual and exotic springtime dance. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has announced that it will reconsider an April 2006 decision not to list the Gunnison sage grouse as an endangered species, according to a notice filed in March with the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.

  A Flickr photoA horned lark that managed to avoid being hit by a plane. The Federal Aviation Administration has opened its database about birds and other animals struck by planes -- a hot topic following the January landing in the Hudson River of a US Airways flight that tangled with a flock of geese. And guess what? Our own Denver International Airport has the most reported bird strikes of any facility this decade: 2,090. What kind of creatures are losing battles with planes in Colorado most

The most popular option is the lounging lion pair, followed by the basket-bearing retrievers, the preening swans and the welcome rabbits.

  Talk about paying at the pump.​Exxon-Mobil had a bad day in court in Denver yesterday. The firm pleaded guilty to killing migratory birds in five states, including Colorado. The size of the fine and community-service payments Exxon-Mobil has agreed to pony up -- $600,000 -- is, to use an avian reference, chicken feed given the profits the company has reaped in recent years. Nonetheless, the corporate behmoth is also having to invest in a plan to prevent such slayings in the future. These p
