Congrats to Joey and Nathan for locating a Cactus Wren. I remember the wren was first glimpsed about 40 years ago by Harold Holt and we all thought at the time he had gone nuts for making that call. So cincere apologies to Harold, where ever he may be.

Cactus Wren - Yes

Nathan Pieplow <npieplow@gmail.com>: Jun 15 06:33AM -0600 The Cactus Wren found yesterday by Joey Kellner continues at the corner of CR 193.5 north of Kim in Las Animas County (37.636408,-103.431881). I heard the bird sing from due east of the corner six or seven times at about 5:20 this morning and got an audio recording. It sounded like it was within 100 yards of the road but I couldn't see it. It then sounded like it moved farther east. I suspect the corner is near the west end of its area. Other people have arrived to search for the bird so hopefully they will manage to locate it. I searched the spot from 7:00 pm to sunset last night without any success.   Be advised that the mockingbird that sings persistently south of the corner has picked up some Cactus Wren song and can cause momentary confusion.   Nathan Pieplow Boulder
