I suppose this is the same bird that was here last year for about a week in early June. I hear it singing at the top of the hill near us, which is on Ouray Dr at the level of #8424 (lion statue; noisy dogs). It did not remain there for long, or breed successfully, as far as I could tell, and I wonder why it came back! Same question about the Ovenbirds in south Boulder, which return year after year but for which we have never found signs of successful breeding.
We also have-- in our yard-- an intriguing Bullock's Oriole; it must be a young male, judging from behavior, although it has little trace of a black goatee. It sings like a male, and has been going around the house tapping on windows, like a robin. Black-chinned hummers, both sexes, visiting the feeders...
