Dixon Reservoir - Fort Collins - Larimer

[Aran Meyer]

At 10:30 this morning I found the following species in the forest on the north end of Dixon Reservoir at Pineridge Natural Area:

 

Black-throated Gray Warbler

Downy Woodpecker

Black-capped Chickadee

Wilson's Warbler

Ruby-crowned Kinglet

Yellow-rumped Warbler (F)

 

American Goldfinch

 

The first six species listed were working Peachleaf Willows and an uncommon native Hawthorn tree right by the small woooden bridge on the trail that heads south through the forest/shrubs.  At one point point the small Hawthorn had four or five species working it.  Pretty cool.
