Canon City birding

This morning I birded with two Pueblo birders, Pearle and Clif, who drove up to Canon City to do the eastern section of the Canon City Riverwalk with me. We ran into several active, mixed groups of birds along the approx 1 mile of this section. Following are some of the less common birds we saw:

Plumbeous Vireos-at least 3 (including 1 immature and 1 that was singing)
Orange-crowned Warbler-1 seen by Pearle
Nashville Warbler-1 seen by Clif
MacGillivray's Warbler-1 seen by Pearle and Clif
Wilson's Warblers-many still migrating through
Western Tanager-many still migrating through
and several Black-chinned, Broad-tailed and Rufous Hummingbirds (many migrating)
