[cobirds] late warblers in CO
By my count, Colorado has hosted at least 19 species of warblers since November 1st. I probably missed one or two. The list jotted down includes (in no particular order): prothonotary black-and-white northern parula yellow-rumped chestnut-sided yellow-throated pine Nashville Townsend's common yellowthroat black-throated blue ovenbird blackpoll (not sure if this one was ever confirmed) yellow Tennessee MacGillivray's Wilson's orange-crowned northern waterthrush I think the key foods involved are aphids, midges and suet. Fruit on trees like juniper, Russian-olive, viburnums, mountain-ash and crabapple are probably also part of how these birds can cope with cold weather, fatten up and hopefully move on. Any species I missed? How many will brighten our Christmas Counts? Dave Leatherman Fort Collins -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.

[cobirds] Tree Swallow - Pueblo Dec 1st
I was surprised to see a quite late Tree Swallow this morning 1 December 2022 at Pueblo Reservoir, flying around in the SE corner of Pueblo Reservoir. I remember a late Tree Swallow along the Arkansas River at Valco Pond a long time that was around for a few days. We haven't had any Swallow on any of our local Christmas Bird Counts down here, just White-throated Swifts one year. Brandon K.
