Hello, Birders. There was a slow but steady flight of presumed Hermit Thrushes--those achingly pure-tone whistles--over Greenlee Preserve, Boulder County, during the period of "astronomical dawn" (google it) this morning, Friday, Sept. 16th. Also a trickle of presumed Orange-crowned and Yellow-rumped warblers--the Orange-crowns with their husky, scratchy, somewhat abrupt flight calls, the Yellow-rumps with their strangely breathy flight calls.
Neat weather out there, with dense, but also very low, fog. Could barely make out the nearby trees, but surface details on the distant moon were plainly evident through binoculars. Temperature around 7, with a light north wind. ------------------------------- Ted Floyd Editor, Birding Please check out the website of the ABA: http://tinyurl.com/6kmbfvx And please check out The ABA Blog: http://tinyurl.com/4n6qswt We're on twitter, too: http://tinyurl.com/2ejzlzv ------------------------------- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
