Chico Basin Ranch, Pueblo/El Paso Cos. 9/28

[Brandon K. Percival]

David Chartier and I birded the Pueblo County side of Chico Basin Ranch (fee area), this morning.  Highlights were two FIELD SPARROWS, one at the Headquarters and one photographed at Rose Pond.  We also, saw a Townsend's Warbler and Red-naped Sapsucker at Headquarters.  On the El Paso County side, a Calliope Hummingbird, as well as Broad-tailed Hummingbirds were coming into the feeders at the banding station.  In the trees around the banding station, there were a couple of Townsend's Solitaires, Western Wood-Pewee, Hammond's Flycatcher, Cassin's Kingbird, among other birds.
