new arrival, Larimer Foothills

[arvind panjabi]

Yesterday, I had my first Virginia's Warbler in Horsetooth Mtn Park, also a singing Plumbeous Vireo and Blue-gray Gnatcatcher.

Today, I had 3 Virginia's Warblers, a Plumbeous Vireo, 2 Blue-gray Gnatcatchers, a Black-headed Grosbeak and a Western Tanager.

Also of note, the Bushtits seem to have greatly expanded since last year and are occupying 3 areas of the park (in May) they never have before. 

Lots of yellow-rumps still moving through.

Also, at my home this morning, Bullock's Orioles arrived - 3 of them together.

Good birding,
