Mt Falcon - Jefferson County

[John Breitsch]

Since we are right smack in the middle of migration, and this is Spring Count weekend, I decided to be completely different and go to the foothills and see which breeders had returned.  I ended up with 41 species.  A partial list includes, Dusky Grouse, Wild Turkey, Common Poorwill, Canyon Wren, Evening Grosbeak, Black-headed Grosbeak, Western Tanager, Spotted and Green-tailed Towhees, Virginia's Warbler, and some Yellow-rumped Warblers.  

I walked the Tower Trail and came back on the Parmalee Trail.  DFO trip along the same route next week.
