Since we are right smack in the middle of migration, and this is Spring
Count weekend, I decided to be completely different and go to the foothills
and see which breeders had returned. I ended up with 41 species. A
partial list includes, Dusky Grouse, Wild Turkey, Common Poorwill, Canyon
Wren

I had my usual luck chasing grouse - zero seen.
Consolation species were Williamson's Sapsucker (9 or 10 males), Red-naped
Sapsucker (just one), Cassin's Finch (small flock, both genders), Mountain
Bluebird, all three nuthatches usually seen in Colorado, Townsend's
Solita
