Continuing our visit in the Estes Park area, this morning we had wonderful close views of a Marsh Wren near the side of the road in Moraine Park in Rocky Mountain National Park. I found only a handful of other records in eBird for the Estes Park/RMNP area over the years. The bird was about two thirds of the way down the road from the Bear Lake Road to the Cub Lake trailhead, near the two cabins on the north side of the road. On our return up the road we saw the bird a second time interacting with a House Wren, giving us a nice comparison of the two species. There were also lots of American Pipits in Moraine Park, apparently waiting for all that snow above tree line to start to melt.
