This morning I returned to Red Canyon Park (8 miles north of Canon City on Red Canyon Road) for a hour or so of birding. There were still warblers feeding in some of the hackberry trees but fewer and activity was down to a low roar. Yellow-rumps were predominate and all I saw were Audubon's. There were still a few Townsend's left but only one or two Wilson's Warblers plus at least 2 Ruby-crowned Kinglets. A nice flock of Bushtits made up for the reduced warbler action while the Townsend's Solitaires serenaded from nearby. I hear Pinyon Jays but the only jay species I saw today was Western Scub Jay. I have uploaded a couple of photos of Yellow-rumps I took today onto my Birds and Nature blog.<http://birdsandnature.blogspot.com/> (I also uploaded photos I took at Ramsey Canyon Preserve in AZ earlier this month of a female Black-chinned Hummingbird feeding her fledgling and one of the fledgling perched alone).
Around noontime when I got back into Canon City I stopped briefly by the Canon City Riverwalk near the Sell's Lake parking lot. I heard then saw a Black Phoebe.
