Scott and all,
I already put up my HB feeders 4/12 (to be covered in 2" of snow this morning!), cuz in 2009, the FOY broad-tailed male arrived on 4/20. In 2010, he didn't arrive until 5/7. My Say's Phoebe pair were first seen in my yard this year looking at the nesting ledge on 4/7/11. That is early: 4/18/09 and 4/19/10! Kay Kayleen A.

A moderate flock of Brown-capped Rosy finches have been at our house for most of the morning. In the past we have had them all winter. However, due to the Northern Shrike that had been in the neighborhood this past winter, the finches have been nonexistent. Now that the shrikes have moved north, the finches are back. FYI Broad-tailed Hummingbirds should be arriving here any day now. Scott Rashid Estes Park -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
