Pueblo birds 4/19

[Brandon]

At Osprey Picnic Area, Rock Canyon, below Pueblo Reservoir dam:

Vaux's Swift - 1 photographed from 8:34am to 8:47am from the West Side of Osprey Picnic Area, last seen flying west, with Swallows.  Lots of searching later, didn't produce the bird again.  {The wet weather coming, tomorrow and Saturday, might be good days to be looking over the swallows}.  I quickly noticed both the light throat, buffy rump on a small swift.  

Also, I saw a Orange-crowned Warbler, a male Wilson's Warbler, and a Merlin.

Later, Bill Maynard, Lynne Miller, and I saw a Caspian Tern flying over Osprey Picnic Area, with some Franklin's Gull.

Bill and I saw a Peregrine Falcon at Cottonwood Picnic Area.
