Well, fallout may be an overstatement, but the cold, drizzly foggy conditions have grounded numerous migrants this morning here in Fort Collins. Just in a small area around my house (smaller than a city block) I have had: Virginia’s Warbler Palm Warbler Black-and-white Warbler (photographed) Blackpoll Warbler – 1 fem. Northern Waterthush (photographed) Wilson’s Warbler MacGillivray’s Warbler – 2 Yellow Warbler – 6 Yellow-rumped Warbler – 8 Warbling Vireo - 1 Gray Catbird Swainson’s Thrush – 6 Black-headed Grosbeak – 2 Western Tanager – 2 Western Wood-Pewee – 3 Empidonax spp. flycatcher – 4
At least in this area, birds are everywhere, even in the neighborhoods. Patience is required though, as few birds are singing, and viewing conditions are horrendous. Good luck finding birds in your neighborhood. Nick Komar Fort Collins CO -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
