Hi again-- I rejoice that I've had two good hikes in about 4 days. Tried the Gregory Canyon option this morning since it was so beautiful out. The chats, tanagers (nope: no scarlet!), Virginia's warblers (4 squabbling over a small sunny hillside), RC kinglets and a few YR warblers, hummers, and even a dusky flycatcher were in fine fettle. A falcon was screaming at something, and there were many, many swifts.
WB nuthatch was feeding a female. These cannot have fledged by now, can they? So I presume this was a courting gesture? I was surprised at how deserted it was, generally, in the shady riparian areas. Others have seen thrushes; none were here. No catbirds in the shrubs. No puzzling warblers to look up in the book... Maybe tomorrow. Please let me know. Thanks, Linda Central Bldr Cnty near Table Mtn & Haystack --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Join us at the 2009 Convention in Alamosa: http://cfo-link.org/convention/index.php You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
