Black-throated Blue Warbler - Flagler State Wildlife Area 5/5/17

[Austin Hess]

I found an adult male Black-throated Blue Warbler on the east side of Flagler State Wildlife Area in Kit Karson County this morning at about 10:30. It was foraging high in a cottonwood grove. Photos were obtained. Also present were two Ladder-backed Woodpeckers which was surprising given the location.

I also found a White-throated Sparrow at Last Chance Rest Area in Washington County early this morning. Was with a Sparrow flock where all the old abandoned buildings are.
