[cobirds] Re: Unusual Cordilleran Flycatcher nest location. Lyons, Boulder county

Dave,

Here's a photo of a Canyon Wren in the same approximate location from August 30th last year where the wren was going between empty swallow nests presumably looking for bugs. Maybe the Canyon Wren clears out the bed bugs so the Cordilleran isn't bothered by them? It would be interesting to have seen what the Canyon Wren was catching.

I was social distancing birding along Old South St. Vrain Road in Lyons with Rolf Hertenstein and Patrick Bohan this morning and we saw an unusual nest location for a Cordilleran Flycatcher. It was using an old Cliff Swallow nest. We've never seen this before. Anyone else witnessed this or other strange nest locations?
