[cobirds] Littleton - Ken Caryl birds - Chatfield (Arapahoe and Jefferson)

This afternoon a male CHESTNUT-SIDED WARBLER was singing for about 5 min. from some tall cottonwoods near my Ken Caryl Valley yard. I had only a short far off view but enjoyed hearing him well.

At 6 am I went out to get the paper and was greeted by the rich song of the Summer Tanager!! What a great comparison to the surrounding robin songs. It was high in my westernmost cottonwood tree in back along with an Empid. I watched the tanager until it took off to the north. I am leaving for O
