Chico Today

[John D]

CO birders :

 

    Highlights this morning Male Scarlet Tanager at Rose Pond found by Bill Maynard , and male Black-throated Green Warbler south of HQ willows found by Gary Koehn . Also Northern Waterthrush at HQ and Rose Pond and Least Bittern was heard first thing this morning in the SE corner of Rose Pond by Bill M. Willow Flycatchers at both locations. I also had a singing Cassin's Sparrow in the cholla grassland east of Rose Pond which is first of season . CASP were completely absent last year at Chico because of the drought . All these locations are Pueblo County . On my drive in along Hanover Road , a Lewis's Woodpecker was attacking a power line pole .
