Hi all,
On Friday, 11 September, I was driving along Greenhorn Mountain Road,
Custer/Huerfano Counties, at over 11,000 feet in elevation and saw a Say's
Phoebe. Have others seen this species at this high of elevation in Colorado?
Other highlights along Greenhorn Mountain Road were two American Three-toed
Woodpeckers on the 11th and one on the 12th, several Townsend's Warblers on the
11th and 12th, a few Pine Grosbeaks on the 12th, and good numbers of Gray Jays
on the 11th and 12th.
On my families property in the Wet Mountains in Custer County, I saw a Northern
Pygmy-Owl on the 10th (my sister visiting from Arizona also got to see it in my
spotting scope around 1030am--this was the first one I've seen at this
location), a male American Three-toed Woodpecker photographed on the 10th, a
Northern Saw-whet Owl calling on the 12th, and a Townsend's Warbler on the 12th.
Good birding,
Brandon Percival
