Blackburnian Warbler in Pueblo 9/21

[Brandon]

Chris Knight and I saw a Blackburnian Warbler in the Rock Canyon Picnic Area, on the North side of the Arkansas River, below Pueblo Reservoir dam, this morning (21 Sept).  It was pretty much directly across the river from the Fish Hatchery Ponds in cottonwood trees with a flock of other warblers and vireos.  

Pueblo has been getting some interesting warblers this fall so far, this is the 2nd Blackburnian, there have been two Chestnut-sided, a Magnolia, Northern Parula, a few Nashvilles, a few American Redstarts and Northern Waterthrush, also lots of Townsend's Warblers and a hybrid Hermit x Townsend's Warbler.  Hopefully there are more interesting warblers to come to Pueblo this fall.
