[cobirds] First of the season Harlan's Red-tailed Hawk in Canon City

[SeEttaM .]

I spotted the first Harlan's Red-tailed Hawk of the season yesterday in
Canon City.  Like about 90% of the Harlan's it is a dark morph (from
Ligouri and Sullivan) .As many Colorado birders know Harlan's migrate down
from their far north breeding range to winter along the front range and the
Arkansas River Valley. I got a few photos of the bird that I have posted on
my Birds And Nature blog. 

Earlier in the week there was a good movement of Yellow-rumped Warblers
that stopped over in Canon City to fuel their migration.  Typical appearing
Black Phoebes have been moving through Canon City for the past month or
so.  Usually I see them at Florence River Park but haven't seen any there
since mid summer.  A large number of White-throated Swifts congregated for
feeding in west Canon City a week ago.

It is a fabulous year for fall Sandhill Cranes in the San Luis Valley. Here 
are some hotspots to check out when you visit. Near Monte Vista, try the 3E 
road north of Home Lake SWA. Today there were ample numbers scattered in 
the wetlands and grainfields. Also try south of Monte Vista on Hwy 15. 
There are excellent numbers 1 mile south of the town and farther south. I 
live in that area and the daily flyovers morning and evenings have been 
superb. Finally a good area is to drive the Stanley Road east from 
Countyline Road (aka 6E). This road is 6 miles East of Monte Vista on Hwy 
160 and then turn left (north) and drive for about 3 miles and watch for a 
right turn (Stanley Road). Hope that helps...
