[cobirds] Warblers, Fountain Creek, El Paso Co

I was ready for disappointment this morning when I arrived at Hanson Nature Center and found it closed.  So I birded from Duckwood to Willow Springs and found eight warbler species.  Most of the action was on the north side of Rice Pond, where I found a female American redstart and Blackpoll warbler.  There was also a plumbeous vireo in the same area.  The warblers were working the trees around the beaver lodge.  Other warblers were MacGillivray's, Wilson's, yellow, yellow-rumped, orange-crowned, and common yellowthroat.
