Folks, After dropping off my wife in Pueblo, I went to Canon City to work on the wren situation. I found a vocal stub-tailed, or ‘cocktail wren’ and recorded it. I am sure it is the same bird seen, photographed and recorded on January 1 and 10. My feeling is this bird is a typical Winter Wren, but I will defer to experts. You can hear the bird at the youtube link below. I heard only one wren for sure. While attempting to photograph this enigma, I saw and photographed a slate-colored Fox Sparrow in the same location. A previously discovered Western Screech-Owl was apparent in it’s massive nest hole north of the port-a-potty near the Raynolds parking lot. See pbase link for photos.
