[cobirds] Crow Valley Campground, Pawnee NG; Weld Co., May 3

In addition to the Painted Redstart, below are birds of note that I found today.  All waterbirds were seen in/near the stream.  Thank you, Cathy Sheeter, for finding and reporting the Redstart.  And thank you to other birders who helped locate the Redstart today.

Can. Goose, 1 pair
Mallard, 4
Blue-winged Teal, 3 (2m, 1f)
Solitary Sand., 2
Wilson's Snipe, 1
Red-naped Sapsucker, 1f (I didn't see this bird well at all, it flew as others pointed it out to me).
Dusky Flycatcher?, 1 (This empid. didn't sing but it called "wit" several times.  I did not see the bill or the primary projection very well.  Too early for Willow?) 
Blue Jay, at least 6 but prob. many more; I assume they were migrants
House Wren, 2
Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, 3
Swainson's Thrush, 1
Hermit Thrush, 2
Brown Thrasher, 1
Orange-crowned Warbler, 2
PINE WARBLER, 1.  Viewed in a deciduous tree in NW part of campground.  Flew toward a nearby tree then disappeared.  First reported by Cathy Sheeter on May 1.
Yellow-rumped Warbler, 11+.  A few each of Audubon's, Myrtle and unID'd.
Townsend's Warbler, 1 female feeding at NW part of campground. 
Chipping Sparrow, approx. 40 in three flocks
Lazuli Bunting, 1m

Take care,
