This is the Hansen Nature Area, cross the bridge over Fountain Creek, and go south to the Ponds. John Drummond, Jeannie Mitchell, Ron Mitchell, Bill Maynard, and I saw the following this afternoon today: a MAGNOLIA WARBLER (found by John), two Chestnut-sided Warblers, a male American Redstart, and a Northern Waterthrush.

Howdy!
Today a few of us did a Big Sit at the two small ponds in Area 7 of FCNC, El Paso county. We went at it from 7:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. We had a blast and saw 48 species of birds.
Highlights included two NORTHERN WATERTHRUSHES, a male AMERICAN REDSTART, and a male CHESTNUT-SIDED WARBLER. We had the requisite Yellow, Yellow-rumped, and Wilson's warblers, a Warbling Vireo, a Lincoln's Sparrow, and the usual Area 7 suspects.
Let's Go Birding!
