I took a visiting aunt out birding in northern Pueblo County and saw a few harbingers of spring:

Swainson’s Hawk - 2
Western Kingbird -2
Say’s Phoebes were present in astonishing numbers; we saw close to 20 in a few hours.
Red-tailed Hawk seen on a nest, and another carrying nesting material.
A single Rock Wren, far out on the prairie.
Barn Swallow - 1
A small flycatcher in the Least/Hammond’s vein, at which we never got a good look.

Mammalian notables:
Two Coyotes
A Porcupine, seen high in a Cottonwood tree from the Pinon Road bridge over Fountain Creek.
