Wood Thrush, Larimer County

[Nicholas Komar]

A singing Wood Thrush was reported this morning by visiting birder Timothy Guida at Lory State Park (fee area), at Soldier Canyon Cove. I refound it this afternoon and audio-recorded the song, which can be accessed at www.xeno-canto.org/375498. I should point out that I searched for an hour before hearing this bird, which eventually sang for about 15 minutes. I never did see it. It sang from dense shrubs along the wooded creek a few yards from the shoreline of Horsetooth Reservoir. Parking is close by, at the Soldier Canyon Group Picnic Area.
