FOS migrants, CSR, El Paso Co, Mon

[Steven Brown]

Hey COBIrders,

Nothing really unusual at Clear Spring Ranch banding this morning, but there was a small arrival, and several FOS’s.

FOS Western Wood-pewee - earliest seen in last 5 springs I’ve been banding here.

FOS Gray Catbird (and was banded by a different group at CSR prior to 2016)

FOS MacGillivray’s Warbler (ad M) - earliest one banded at CSR in 5 years

FOS Female Com Yellowthroat - all those seen and banded previously were males.

FOS Killdeer  - really not rare, but it was the first

Still haven’t seen a female Yellow Warbler - just singing and chasing males so far.

Good birding, 

Steve Brown
