Olive-Sided Flycatcher - Longmont

[Cathy Sheeter]

I wandered around Roger's Grove Park (Longmont) today in the drizzle while waiting for the tires on my truck to be rotated and overall it was not nearly as birdy as its counterpart Golden Ponds have been, with just a handful of YR Warblers and one Orange-Crown.  However back by the railroad tracks I did find an Olive-Sided Flycatcher.  This is the first one for the year recorded on e-bird (though saw some earlier May records from previous years) so thought I would post it.

Happy birding!
