The singing like mad Bell's Vireo I found on Sunday, continues as of this morning, 27 May. Still in the same location, just east of the 3rd Valco Pond, and just west of the Valco Bridge. Singing in the olives on the south side of the trail.
Other birds in the area this morning were: Rose-breasted Grosbeak (female), American Redstart (singing young male), two Eastern Phoebes, a female Orchard Oriole, a Plumbeous Vireo, a Olive-sided Flycatcher, a Willow Flycatcher (singing), Cassin's Kingbirds (singing), among others. Many of these species don't breed in Rock Canyon/Valco Ponds area, so bird are still migrating. I think early June will still have migrants in eastern Colorado this year.
