Natural Arch Highlights

[John Rawinski]

Spent a morning out at Natural Arch north of Del Norte. They had received a torrential downpour last night but roads were drained by this morning. Pretty much found all of the expected birds in pinyon and juniper habitat. Best were :

Gray Flycatcher

Cordilleran Flycatcher

Dusky Flycatcher

W Wood Pewee

Woodhouse's Scrub-jay

Plumbeous Vireo

Warbling Vireo

White-throated Swift

The controversial Bendire's Thrasher was no where to be found. But July has been the best time to watch for them.
