I went out along Massey Draw in Ken Caryl Valley this afternoon and encountered a silence of birds... a bird free zone for quite a while. Then where the stream passes through the Lyons Formation Hogback I encountered a loose aggregation of *Townsend's Solitaires*. One or a few at the hogback here are expected, but now there were three individuals singing, others giving their "heep" calls, and as I scanned toward the slopes of the Dakota Hogback I could see more solitaires flying around. I counted 17 from one vantage, a tally more fitting here for the peak of fall movement in late September or early October.
Thankful for Solitaires, David Suddjian Ken Caryl Valley Littleton, CO <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=icon> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=link> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
