[cobirds] Magnolia Warbler, Crow Valley Today

Hi all, Earlier today there was a male Magnolia Warbler singing from a grove of trees at the Crow Valley Campground. It was somewhat close to the main parking lot, but across the dry canal about fifty yards to the north. We first heard the bird vocalizing from the road. Other birds in the area

My apologies to all. I wrote and sent that note at about 3:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 24, after we had seen the bird on that day. I didn't realize the post wouldn't show up until 7:00 a.m. on the next day (Friday the 25th) I should have noted the date and time in my original message. On

Re: [cobirds] Re: UI warbler, Larimer County - calling it a Blue-Winged Warbler

Joyce is correct; pure-looking Blue-winged and Golden-winged Warblers can sing the song of the other species. Hybrids can sing the song of either species, or (rarely) an intermediate song. Often, what people consider an "abnormal" song from one of these species may be a perfectly normal rendition

[cobirds] Golden-crowned Warbler NO

Folks, As Brandon states, several birders have tried for the warbler since 7 a.m. It has not been seen.  The chokecherry bushes are devoid of flowers, insects, and birds.  If anyone sees the warbler again please post an update to the listserv. Thank you. Glenn Walbek Castle Rock, CO Sent

[cobirds] Re: UI warbler, Larimer County - calling it a Blue-Winged Warbler

In June 2004 there was a Blue-winged Warbler in Gregory Canyon in Boulder which did not sing a pure Blue-winged song. Ted Floyd said that we could not count it as a Blue-wing since it did not sing a pure song, but I believe that some birds can learn other songs. Maybe Nathan could comment on

[cobirds] Re: UI warbler, Larimer County - calling it a Blue-Winged Warbler

After some good exchanges with other CObirders off list, I feel more confident in calling this bird a *Blue-Winged Warbler.* Mark Miller pointed out that a Blue-Winged Warbler loitered in a Jeffco park for several weeks in 2015, and this led me to dig through the cobirds archive to discover

Re: [cobirds] Rose-breasted Grosbeak, central Bldr Cnty & other news

Just to remind everybody: female orioles sing frequently. So do female cardinals and grosbeaks. In fact, females sing at least rarely in most passerine species. So beware of assuming that a bird is a male just because it's singing! Nathan Pieplow Boulder On Fri, May 25, 2018 at 8:10 AM, Linda

Re: [cobirds] Rose-breasted Grosbeak - Kohler Reservoir Boulder

Mark Holmgren and I had a Rose Breasted Grosbeak singing away on Monday morning on the Koehler Reservoir trail area, at the end of Dartmouth Street in Boulder. We didn’t report it then because it didn’t come up as a box on eBird. We also had Black Headed Grosbeaks singing, a nice duet! Sent

[cobirds] Rose-breasted Grosbeak - CU East Campus, Boulder

Good morning CoBirders, CU East was very slow this morning as migrant action gives way to nesting activity. The one highlight was a male Rose-breasted Grosbeak singing from a cottonwood just north of the "waterthrush" bridge between the two ponds. Good birding, Peter Peter Burke 300 Forest

[cobirds] Rose-breasted Grosbeak, central Bldr Cnty & other news

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

[cobirds] Re: Red Rocks Trading Post?

Hi Elena: the feeders are still there (as of yesterday) - one to the "left" behind the small building, and a platform feeder just above the small pond over on the "right". Adding seeds by the volunteers officially ends at Memorial Day, so finding seed in the feeders will probably be spotty

Re: [cobirds] Re: Golden-crowned Warbler - hmmm

Brandon, We saw the GOLDEN-CROWNED WARBLER at about 9:30 a.m. this morning, in the usual chokecherry patch west of County Road 9 and North of the House. Very fleeting views, but nonetheless viewed. We stayed 11:45 without any further views of the bird. Lea Ann Brown Highlands Ranch,Colorado
