I was surprised to find an orange-crowned warbler at Dixon reservoir in Fort Collins this morning.  It was foraging in some plums at the southwest end of the 'north woods', where the short trail cuts through the trees between the clearing and the westernmost trail.  I also had at least 1 lesser goldfinch.  Not much else new, except a few spotted towhees singing.  A song sparrow was collecting nest material.

Around my place near Horsetooth Mtn Park, this morning was the first time I heard spotted towhees singing in the neighborhood (at least 3).  I've had 1-2 individuals hanging around since the weekend.  I have still not seen a single mtn bluebird this spring, usually they begin passing through in march and are at my nest box by this time.
