[cobirds] Beulah, Pueblo County birds on Aug 1st

On August 1st:

Two adult Acorn Woodpeckers continue in the big dead tree at the Horseshoe Lodge Parking lot in Pueblo Mountain Park, above Beulah.  The woodpeckers are taking food into a nest hole, though so far the baby woodpeckers haven't fledged.  There were at least two singing male Grace's Warblers, perhaps more, and the singing male Hooded Warbler, were close to the parking lot, on the left, past the old basketball court, also in Pueblo Mountain Park.

I've been seeing a few Dusky Grouse in the Wet Mountains, south west of Pueblo as well recently in both Pueblo and Custer Counties, near or on Hwy 165, from just south of Lake Isabel, north toward Bishop's Castle (6 miles N of Lake Isabel) along Hwy 165.  I saw three on Aug 1st.

Good birding,
