This afternoon I decided to chase the Prairie Warbler photographed yesterday at Crow Valley. The mosquitoes were awful and the water level was still fairly high, so there are lots of good places that I couldn't get to. The highlights were:
Crow Valley (Weld County)
- 1 PRAIRIE WARBLER (refound) - Singing. From the picnic area walk south to the fence, from there walk west until the first tree (a very large tree that you can walk under), it was staying in this area.
- 1 Red-eyed Vireo - Same location as the Prairie Warbler.
- 1 BLACK-BILLED CUCKOO - I got a good close view of it flying into the row of trees along the creek just south of the Prairie Warbler tree. I could not find it after it landed. It appeared smaller then a Yellow-billed Cuckoo, it was whitish underneath and brown on the uppersides. There was no rufous anywhere on the bird.
- 1 Cordilleran Flycatcher - Same area as the Cuckoo.
- 1 GOLDEN-WINGED WARBLER - Singing. It was where the creek goes under the fence on the south west side of the campground.
- 1 Northern Waterthrush - The same location as the Golden-winged Warbler.
Norma's Grove (Weld County: On CR 100, just east of CR 57)
- 1 WOOD THRUSH - With several Swainson's Thurshes along the creek on the north side of the road.
- 1 'Western' Veery - Along the creek on south side of the road.
