Blue-winged Warbler, Cottonwood Marsh, Walden Ponds, Boulder County

[Paula Hansley]

CObirders,

At dawn this morning, I heard the familiar "Zee-zee" (going down in pitch) as I was leaving the Walden parking lot with the bass fishermen!  This is one warbler song I will never forget, having grown up in southern Ohio.

There was a small flock (<12) of "eastern" warblers that flew by me in the darkness before dawn.  It was cloudy and fairly warm; clouds of insects could be seen over the water.

Many birds (i.e. Yellowthroat, Bullock's Oriole, Yellow Warbler, Warbling Vireo) seem finally to have returned.  I've been sick and not doing any birding for a week.

I heard what must have been the same bird this morning, although when I heard it at 8:30 AM it was about 2/3 of the way back toward the creek from the Sawhill parking lot. It didn't seem to stick around and I never got a look at it. Sounds like it might be moving around the Walden/Sawhill area, so keep your eyes and ears peeled.
