Vermilion Flycatcher - Douglas County, Chatfield, between Sandspit and Delta

[myrong...@gmail.com]

I found a Vermilion Flycatcher along the water between the Sandspit and Plum Creek Delta. First seen at (39.5411423, -105.0541053), then later refound east of there at (39.543111, -105.051724). It was mainly picking insects off the surface of the water. If you want to pursue, I suggest starting near the Sandspit then walking east along the water, watching for it along the way.

Has to be midges that bird is after.  Same timing and sustaining resource as the long-staying bird at Walden Ponds in east Boulder in 2018.  Great find, Myron.
