Canon City area update on migrants plus wandering bird species

[SeEttaM]

Migrants in addition to the Eastern and Black Phoebes I reported on a few days ago:

About 40 White-throated Swifts were feeding above the city water pond on Tunnel Dr Rd a week ago.

Yellow-rumped Warblers, both Audubon and Myrtles, have been moving through the Canon City Riverwalk for the past 5 or 6 days. 

1 Snowy Egret at Florence River Park

First of the year male Broad-tailed Hummingbird buzzed me 2 days ago on the Tunnel Drive Rd.

Yesterday I spotted 1 Great Egret on the far side of the east Valco Ponds off MacKenzie Ave. (private property, seen from side of road near bridge)

Wanderers"

4 Stellars Jays are still visiting the Canon City Riverwalk (first saw them 2 months ago but thought they would gone by now

About 2 dozen Evening Grosbeak along with a dozen or so Pine Siskins I previously reported on continue in Lincoln Park

>12 Cassin's Finches, which I haven't seen in several years, have joined the Evening Grosbeak and Pine Siskins
----------------------

I am behind on photos but did get about 5 close up pics of the Eastern Phoebes that I have seen several times along Tunnel Drive Rd onto my Birds and Nature blog.
