[cobirds] Re: Montane stuff in eastern Boulder County

I have Red- breasted in my "yard" in Denver on a regular basis year 'round. I hear one lately that must be a juvenile. His vocalization pitch is much higher that the others that I hear. Guess they are here as I live so close to Fairmount Cemetery with all the diverse tree species.

Hey, everybody. Folks have been posting here about a late-summer movement east of the mountains of red-breasted nuthatches, and we've been noticing it here in the Lafayette, eastern Boulder County, area, too. Go outside for half an hour, and you'll more likely than not hear one of the little buggers yank...yank...yank'ing away.

And it's not just red-breasted nuthatches.

Friday morning, Sept. 8, I was surprised by a Williamson's sapsucker along Boulder Creek near 75th Street; yesterday morning, Sat., Sept. 9, a pygmy nuthatch was jabbering away from a shade tree at one of the residences just west of Greenlee Preserve; and this Sunday morning, Sept. 10, near the Centennial Trail, one or two brown creepers were going at it in the planted spruces at the terminus of Old Tale Road.

(The pygmy nuthatch was bird species #240 for me at the Waneka/Greenlee complex.)
