A Common Poorwill had returned to the hogbacks of Ken Caryl Ranch (no public access) by April 24, tying my earliest record here. Small numbers of Evening Grosbeaks were around my home on April 22 and 24. Cassin's Finches remained near my home for several days after the influx that came with the last snows, and were noted through April 22.

The voice recorder on my phone interpreted the finch's name as "Kasun Squinches", which I was delighted with. One has to mumble just right to get that one.
