Littleton, Arapahoe Co 5/14

There was a nice smattering of migrants where I looked today at Littleton. Of interest to me were these:

Around St Mary Church on S. Prince St there was a Virginia's Warbler along with Yellows and Orange-crowned, a soaring Peregine Falcon, and a Northern Mockingbird. I think this was maybe my first mockingbird in the Littleton area since I moved here 2.5 years ago. Why are they not more common in the urban area?

Along Highline Canal I had a Northern Waterthrush, American Redstart, Hammond's Flycatcher, and Black-chinned Hummer.
