Hello birders,

Barb and I biked up and down Waterton Canyon today. Were pleased to see a Black-throated Blue Warbler. Location: https://goo.gl/maps/xJRUayKkJTn
Also enjoyed the spring-like song of many Townsend's Solitaires, one tooting and singing about every 500 yards up the canyon road. Is this behavior about confused hormones or territory? I think winter territory, for juniper berries. Also, saw an American Dipper wander from Douglas County to Jefferson County--county line is the middle of the S. Platter River--a twofer!.
