[cobirds] WOOD THRUSH and Black Phoebe in Canon City area plus first Mountain Chickadees also in the area

I found a WOOD THRUSH in Lakeside Cemetery in Canon City today.  I got photos showing it's white eyering, white (not buffy) underparts with black spots extending well down the flanks and short tail.  I believe this is a record for Fremont County.  I have uploaded the photos onto my Birds and Nature blog.

Other birds were sparse in the cemetery--5 Audubon's Yellow-rumped Warblers, 6 Western Bluebirds, a few each Chipping Sparrows, Black-capped Chickadees and Northern Flickers (no Yellow-bellied or other sapsuckers).

I spotted a Black Phoebe at the Florence River Park yesterday but was on my way to a meeting so didn't walk into the back area.  A few days ago I saw 4-5 first-of-the season Mountain Chickadees there and had one at home on Oct 1.
