[cobirds] Prothonotary Warbler---Jeffco

Today, I received a call from Joe Roller saying that Doug Kibbe and Mackenzie ? (terrible with names) had a Prothonotary Warbler at Main Reservoir (NW corner of Jewell and Kipling). Within 10 minutes, they got me on the bird.  The gorgeous warbler was hanging with a flock of Bushtits, Chickadees, and Wilson's Warblers.  Also in the flock was a Western Wood Pewee and a Townsend's Warbler.  I then went to Belmar and got soaked in the rain, but was able to find 3 Townsend Warblers and a Cassin's Vireo on the west end of the park.  Thanks to Mackenzie and Doug on finding this great bird!!  Photos of the Prothonotary Warbler can be found in the rare to uncommon galley below:
