[cobirds] Pueblo birds 9/1-2

Hi all,

Valco Ponds/Rock Canyon area below Pueblo Reservoir dam (Pueblo County), was quite birdy on Saturday.

Highlights that I saw were:
Veery - 1 
Tennessee Warbler - 1 
Northern Waterthrush - 2
Townsend's Warbler - 3
Black Phoebe - 5
Eastern Phoebe - 3
8 species of warblers and 2 species of vireos

Today, things were slow around that area.  None of rarer birds from yesterday, except for a Townsend's Warbler that David Chartier saw in Rock Canyon.  We also saw a Peregrine Falcon, a Western Scrub-Jay (rare at this location), 2 Eastern Phoebes and only one Black Phoebe.  Only 4 species of warbler, and zero vireos today. 

With all the Pine Warblers around, I will check Pueblo City Park and see if by chance there is one there.  

Good birding,
