Birders,
I stayed local today, and did not leave Bent County. In a remote
location on the west end of John Martin Reservoir, within John Martin
SWA, I observed a male Hooded Warbler. I also heard a Carolina Wren. Of
interest, in this habitat characterized by mature willows of two
species, mid-sized cottonwood trees, with an understory of sedges, tall
grass and forbs, I had a calling Carolina Wren. I had calling Carolina
Wrens there in 2019, and think there may be a nesting population.
I don't think the Black-bellied Whistling-Ducks in neighboring Otero
County were observed today.
Stay safe!
