I also expect to find a lot of Gnatcatchers in April and May in my patch along Coal Creek in Superior.  But this year, despite being out more than usual, I have seen exactly zero.  There were a few in the low foothills along Plainview Rd in northern Jefferson County earlier this week so it's not like they've all evaporated.  Like Curt, I'm interested to hear from others about whether I'm just blind, or this is a local anomaly, or a more widespread phenomenon.

Thanks,

In my local patch (Bear Creek in Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks), Blue-gray Gnatcatchers are each year one of the earlier migrants to set up shop.  I have, for example, had multiple pairs by April 19.  And one of the great things about this bird is how pugnacious they are;  you can hardly peep without one of them popping up to glower at you.

This year, to date, I have seen none along nearly a mile of nice shrubby habitat. I hope that others are seeing lots of this bird.  ??
