Pueblo City Park PINE WARBLER retraction

[Brandon K. Percival]

After looking at my photos, and other people's photos, I believe the warbler seen at Pueblo City Park on Sunday, 10 November, was a BLACKPOLL WARBLER.  The photos show, a short tail, not long like Pine, and light colored legs, among other things.  The bird was very high up in the trees, and when I saw yellow on the throat, I thought it had to be a Pine Warbler.  I never really noticed the tail length I guess, as the short tail rules out Pine Warbler.  This has to be one of the latest Blackpoll Warblers for Colorado, I would not have expected this species, this late in the year.  Sorry for the mis-identification.
