I love rare birds from odd places, and found in odd places (maybe not so
odd as the habitat looks good, just the location isn’t oft birded).
Why would this bird stop in this location? Well, looks like weather is an
easy culprit this time.

All,
The Red-faced Warbler was seen yesterday at Burchfield State Wildlife Area,
which is east of Springfield and about a mile from the Kansas line in Baca
County.
There are 2 previous documentations of Red-faced Warbler in CO in the CBRC
database: https://cobrc.org/Reports/SpeciesDetail.aspx?id
