Prothonotary Warbler, etc.

[Chris Knight]

Observed the Prothonotary Warbler eating small berries this morning at 9:40AM, Centennial Park, at the curve in the trail on the north side of the main pond. Nice bird! Next, I went to Chatfield State Park to see what was there. Only things of note were a pair of Common Loons and a single White Pelican. There were also 70+ Western Grebes.

Sorry for the delay but finally got over to Centennial Park after dealing with jet lag from returning from China and a sinus infection.  The Prothonotary Warbler was again observed yesterday morning around 10:15 a.m. found by Paul (don't remember his last name), myself, and a woman (Ms. Smith) from Boulder.  My wife (Laura) went out that afternoon and also was able to find it between 2:00 and 2:30 p.m.  Don't know what will happen to it with this upcoming cold weather.  Will the berries sustain it?

When I watched the bird for nearly an hour with a couple other people, the bird spent about 75% of the time flycatching (most of that time), grubbing in the leaves and such (bathing, preening) and only about 25% of the time eating the fruit. Either way, it probably ought to be heading south about now and maybe it will with the high winds predicted for today.
