[cobirds] Migration Movement

Birders in CO,
This morning in El Paso County I hit Sondermann Park for three hours. Birding was slow until about 10:00, when I noticed a few empids, some flocks of Wilson's Warblers, and a nice sized flock of Orange-crowned Warblers. An adult Tennessee Warbler was gleaning the willows in with the OCWAs. On my way back from Sondermann, I stopped at the Colorado Springs Xeriscape Gardens and Utilities area, and noticed flyovers American Pipit and Broad-winged Hawk. Hanging around the inner parking lot were two female Broad-tailed and a Black-chinned Hummingbird, as well as about 4 Dusky Flycatchers and an adult male Williamson's Sapsucker. I was surprised to have so much migration activity between 10:00 and 12:00.

Go Birding,
David Tonnessen
