[cobirds] Pueblo -- Blackpoll Warbler 5/5

I finally decided to go birding today, after 230pm (after the long day of birding yesterday).  I went over to the Osprey Picnic Area in Rock Canyon.  I walked the entire area.  The whole area was covered with Yellow-rumped Warblers.  I also saw Virginia's, Orange-crowned, Yellow, and male Blackpoll Warbler.  I also saw my first of the spring Ash-throated Flycatcher.  At the Fish Hatchery Pond, that you drive by, below Pueblo Reservoir, I was delighted to see three Forster's Tern.  Somehow, I didn't see one all of last year, in Colorado.  I didn't want to miss this species two years in a row.  Over in the south east corner of Pueblo Reservoir, there were 20 or so Willets and a Sanderling.
 
Good birding,
