Cobirders, Castlewood Canyon continues to provide great birds for me. In addition to the persistent, vocal and numerous flock of Golden-crowned Kinglets and Barn Owl, not to mention the Palm Warbler two weeks ago, I found a Swainson's Thrush yesterday just below the climbing cliffs on the NW side of the park.
I thought I spotted a Hermit Thrush (I've seen several of them there before) low in the Gambel's Oak, but as the bird circled around me and perched within 20 feet, I had great looks: no red on the tail whatsoever; wings, tail, nape, crown all uniformly drab gray-brown. Sharply spotted on the breast. Happy birding, Bart Deferme Quincy Reservoir Arapahoe County -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
