Hi all,
Six birders (4 from Colorado Springs and 2 from Pueblo) walked along the Canon City Riverwalk in Canon City this morning, during an Arkansas Valley Audubon field trip. We walked from Raynolds Ave. west to Sell Ave. and back, our highlights were a singing FIELD SPARROW and a singing WHITE-EYED VIREO. Both of these are quite rare in Fremont County. They were in-between Raynolds Ave. and Sells Ave., the sparrow was between the bluff trail and the river trail, and the vireos was along the bluff, south of the Bluff Trail. Other things this morning were Yellow-breasted Chats, Bullock's Orioles. pair of Western Bluebirds, Yellow Warblers, quite a few Yellow-rumped Warblers near Sells Ave. parking of the Riverwalk. After the riverwalk, we walked around Pathfinder Regional Park, the White-throated Swifts put on a nice show there. After lunch, we checked Holcim Wetlands, near Portland, nothing too exciting, though always nice to see the nesting cormorants and Great Blue Herons.
Good birding
