Yesterday I again saw a very early (for this elevation) American Dipper in
the Arkansas River, this time west of 1st Street where I also saw a Black
Phoebe again. Also in this area about a dozen Cedar Waxwings fed noisily
in the trees.
The Canon City Riverwalk has been quiet for the past several
I returned to Florence River Park yesterday and found it very birdy (best
in a long time). There were still good numbers of Yellow-rumped Warblers
feeding on the leaf mining insect infestation (more on that in a later
post) with continuing Orange-crowned and Wilson's Warblers. The Eastern

Hi All,
As we were eating breakfast this morning with a guest from Alaska, we
observed an adult male light morph Swainson's Hawk walking and eating
earthworms on the golf fairway behind our house. I'm not sure if the
bird was one of the pair that mated in the area this summer or a

Hi COBirders,
full report to follow.
It was DEAD this morning at Chico Basin Ranch. Only one banded thrush between
7:00 and 9:00! Then a new wave arrived about 9:30, and we caught and banded

Folks,
Joe Roller had located the ARTE just before I arrived. It was west of the
fisherman's pier and best viewed from the edge of the lake there. It never
came in close to shore as these pictures demonstrate. Instead it stayed on the
center buoys and fished the middle part of the west lake,
Hi All,
I couldn't find Rachel Hopper's Yellow-throated Warbler, but I've had a few real good mixed flocks along the trail between Taft and Wilson in Loveland the last couple of days. The Woodbine (Virginia Creeper) has good berries and so do the Russian Olives.
Here's a list of what I've seen:
At least one of the Palm Warblers previously reported continues at Belmar
Historic Park in Lakewood.
The bird was seen lurking in the willows near the wooden viewing platform on
the southwest corner of the Lake before moving along the shore to the west.
Numerous Yellow-rumped and Orange-crowned
Not too many Burrowing Owls around this time of year. There was one at WCR
100/WCR 33 .25m E of intersection on WCR 100 on N. Also, one at WCR 96/37
about .5m S on WCR 37 on W. WCR=Weld CR

Hi Christine,
If you get any good replies I would appreciate it if you would forward them
to me. I have unsuccessfully looked for burrowing owls at Big Johnson and
Chico Ranch but I need some specificity so i can find them in these
multi-thousand acre expances!
Thanks

Glenn Walbek reports that the adult alternate plumaged Arctic Tern is still
present. The bird alternates between flying around the center of Chatfield
Reservoir (not yet observed coming near shore) and standing on one of the
bouys in the center of the reservoir. The best viewing can be from on

I received a telephone message yesterday evening from a local film maker. She
wanted to know if burrowing owls were still in the area and where she could go
to film them? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thank you!
