Hello, Birders.
Right now, this very instant, Wednesday morning, June 4, there's a "Western" Flycatcher going off outside my window in Lafayette, Boulder County, Colorado. "Western" because the position-note it's giving is ambiguous, and I don't at all assume that migrant "Western" Flycatchers through Colorado are all Cordillerans. Regardless of what it is, the bird doesn't "belong here." Not as a breeder, anyhow, at this location. So stuff is still on the move.
And just think--in a few weeks, we'll be seeing the first "fall" migrants: Marbled Godwits, Rufous Hummingbirds, and Bullock's Orioles wandering to the their molting grounds.
