Re: [cobirds] B-b Warbler, Boulder

Or maybe fewer of them. When I arrived mid-morning, Mark Chavez pointed it out to me in the near tree. Within 15 minutes it flew to the far pine tree. It gleaned for 15 minutes, then sat still--really still--for 15 minutes, while Mark clicked 500 photos and many other people strained to see a yellowish statue with wingbars. And I left. 

So if you don't see it in the near tree tomorrow, don't give up before searching just as hard in the other one. It might be the bird's equivalent of Camp David.

All,    As of 2:30pm the Bay-breasted Warbler remains in the same tree.  Turn  north on Center Green Drive, and it's in the first pine tree between the  first two buildings on the left.    I think it's picking insects from the pine needles and branches.  I have  not seen it fly or hover-glean for insects.  I have never seen it in the  pine tree right next to it, so I think that tree doesn't have the same  insects.    Cheers,  Peter Gent.
