Was it not the case that Colorado’s first record of Broad-billed Hummingbird
from 2002 had previously been banded in Louisiana?

You may be correct but I am trying to point out that we birders only cover
a tiny percentage of the total landscape and there is a good chance that
there are multiple Fork-tailed Flycatchers in CO/WY right now. It will be
interesting if photos can prove if this is the same individual.
Also, this
There are lots of cases of the exact same rare bird being seen hundreds of
miles apart. The California Condor I found in Wyoming in July had been
reported in central Utah ten days previously. In that case we know it was
the same bird because it had a wing tag. And here are some other examples
from
I wouldn't think there would be more than one Fork-tailed Flycatcher this
far north in the Colorado and Wyoming area, and since one was found north
of Fort Collins, and the bird was likely moving north, I'm not surprised
one showed up in Wyoming (I think several people thought it was heading to
How can you assume this is the same bird? That seems like a pretty crazy
assumption given distances between observation locations! Obviously, this
is a rare bird this far north (for either state) but I think it would be
nuts for the same bird to be found given the total amount of area and
number
Looks like the Fort Collins area Fork-tailed Flycatcher has appeared near
Casper, Wyoming. This almost certainly the same bird I would think.

second hawk of the season, this one a female Sharp-shinned. White-crowned
Sparrows and Ruby-crowned Kinglets dominated the morning, which seems like
a strange combination. Here's the breakdown:
Sharp-shinned Hawk 1

I banded a high diversity of species today, and I caught the season's first
Curve-billed Thrasher. Another highlight was an adult male American
Redstart. The total was 32 birds banded of 16 species.
Here's the summary of newly banded birds for the day:
Ruby-crowned Kinglet: 1
