Hi all: On 5 June before we went to Lake Cheraw, Steve Mlodinow, Mark Peterson, and I hit Tempel Grove, Bent Co. Highlights there were late migrants (two Olive-sided Flycatchers and a singing Western Tanager) and two different female Black-chinned Hummingbirds gathering spider webbing for nests. There was also a male Black-chinned there. This represents the northeasternmost record of breeding by the species on the CO plains. The rapidity with which the species is expanding its range in the southeast and along the Front Range is nothing short of spectacular. I would suggest that Kansas birders be on the lookout for breeding in and around Elkhart.
