Was not able to post yesterday as the internet was down all day and into the wee hours of this morning.
On Saturday afternoon we saw a mature Northern Goshawk flying at Spanish Peaks Wilderness Area
Through this morning we have added first of the season Western Kingbird, Loggerhead Shrike, Western Wood-Peewee, Lazuli Bunting, Bullock's Oriole, Ash-throated Flycatcher, Black-chinned and Broad-tailed Hummningbird, Tennessee Warbler (finally a different warbler) and copulating Mountain Bluebirds...they have no shame...right out there on the power line!
It would appear we have broken our drought on both Virginia's Warbler and Broad-winged Hawks for Huerfano County. Saw our first of each on Rouse Road on Sunday...saw two more Virginia's Warblers at Lathrop State Park this morning! Now am just hoping for major snow to break the real drought!
Is it a particularly good year for Broad-winged Hawks in Colorado? Had never see one before this year and now have two in three days in Huerfano County...now if one would just come to my backyard...
There are so many Evening Grosbeaks in the yard right now...it feels like an invasion.
