At Paint Mines Interpretive Park outside of Calhan (El Paso) today I found a *White-eyed Vireo *as well as a *Bell's Vireo*. Both birds were staying low in the chokecherries along the main wash going up into the formations, the White-eyed near the main intersection with the caution sign, the Bell's a bit further along. Other birds included *Green-tailed Towhee*, two *Hermit Thrush*, two *Virginia's Warblers*, an Empid I was leaning towards *Hammond's* on, *Blue-gray Gnatcatchers*, *White-crowned Sparrows*, *Northern Mockingbirds*, *Rock Wrens*, *Say's Pheobes*, a *Loggerhead Shrike* and a *Spotted Towhee*. *Meadowlarks *were abundant and singing, and we got to witness some beautiful skylarking from male *Lark Buntings*. Several *Swainson's*, *Red-tails*, and *Kestrels* on the way out.
