Scissor-tail Flycatcher seen and photo this evening sw of La Junta along Homestead Loop entrance road..... It was very active and chased off any thing that came near.. Western kingbirds, mourning dove, and also a skunk. With this activity do you folks think it could have a nest in the area????

Seen this morning at intersection of homestead loop and road 28 flying around. Lots of nighthawks in the area as well!

Currently at hasty campground where we just happened upon a Baltimore Oriole. Campsite 93 is the general area it’s hanging out in. Quite a treat!

Thanks for the great find, Jim!

Scissor-tailled flycatcher still present and very active. Seen at about 6:30 this morning. No nighthawks, though.
