The monthly birdwalk at Chatfield today discovered a male Summer Tanager at
the Plum Creek Picnic area (in the cottonwoods by the picnic tables between
the parking lot and the reservoir). This bird was mostly red, but showed
signs of molt (yellow feathering on the flanks and undertail coverts).
Possibly indicating a one year old male? At least two Red-eyed Vireos were
still singing in this area, but closer to the reservoir itself.
eBird also flagged a first year Franklin's Gull (a tad early for this
location).
