Note / war
I was able to find several Red-eyed Vireos and Redstarts yesterday, both in
the same location. As some others have noted, about a half a mile upstream
of Kingfisher bridge on the west side of the river. Specifically, the
Redstarts were in the trees right where the river almost floods the trail
Birders,
This am, Tammy, me, Joe and Karin had a Yellow-billed Cuckoo at Barr Lake
State Park. It was 1st near the bridge and flew out into the mullen in the
prairie.
It was a good morning there. Lots of birds on the water and it seems the
local breeders have become more active.
