It was fairly slow at Crow Valley Campground (Weld) this afternoon but I did run into the following birds of modest note:

Dusky Flycatcher (2)
American Redstart (1f)
Cordilleran Flycatcher (1)
Warbling Vireo (1) saw it catch and eat a green lacewing, plus a good-sized unidentified caterpillar (in S. elm)
Townsend's Warbler (1)
Blackpoll Warbler (1)
Cassin's Vireo (1)
Red-breasted Nuthatch
Cassin's Kingbird
Swainson's Thrush (1)
Wilson 's Warbler (at least 6)
Orange-crowned Warbler (2)

Total of 39 species

The nuthatch, vireos, thrush, Townsend's and Blackpoll Warblers were in the Siberian Elm grove n of the Main Picnic Shelter, mostly feeding on European Elm Flea Weevils (I think).
