[cobirds] Arapahoe / JeffCo Non-Birding Bird Sightings

Haven't been birding, but still listening and looking...

I heard my FOY House Wren from my Centennial, CO yard (Arapahoe Co) this morning (4/30). A White-crowned Sparrow was also around.

Yesterday, at Lair o' the Bear Park in Jefferson County, a Steller's Jay was a fun sighting. But an old hummingbird nest, right on the trailhead for the creek trail and low (3.5-4' off the ground) was the real treasure. (I should have noted the plant, but I was so enamored by the nest.) Also, a few butterflies -- a Mourning Cloak and what appeared to be some sort of Fritillary.

Finally, to add a bit on the bluebird conversation, a recent post to the Wisconsin state birding email list addressed the dearth of Eastern Bluebirds up there this spring.
