Have had both red-breasted and white-breasted nuthatches in the yard near Horsetooth Mountain Park west of Fort Collins, after not having any for months. Also male calliope hummingbird(s) seen on and off over a week, last seen today. Lots of rufous hummingbirds, still mostly males. Had a black-chinned female today and of course many broad-taileds. Most bullock's orioles have departed (thankfully - they were drinking a half gallon of sugar water a day), but still a few family groups hanging around. I have seen notably fewer chipping sparrows than I am accustomed to seeing around this time of year. Just one or two odd birds whereas usually I have many flocks coming through at this time.
