Subject: [cobirds] Prothonotary Warbler at Cherry Creek State Park, Arapahoe Co.

Hello all,



The gorgeous Prothonotary Warbler at Cherry Creek State Park, Arapahoe Co. continues near the footbridge adjacent to the Prairie Loop. The bird sings persistently, and moves around among the various trees, usually east of the bridge but sometimes to the west. It often stays well within the leaves as it forages. At times it will remain on the same perch for up to several minutes as it sings or preens, and sometimes comes out into the open. It tends to forage and sing from the middle level of the trees, but at times goes lower or higher. It was also seen investigating a hole low down in the trunk of a tree next to the footbridge, going in and out of the hole several times. This eBird submission includes photos (one also included below) and an audio recording of the song; the song comes at the beginning, at 15 seconds, 30 seconds, and 45 seconds into the recording. Thanks to those who discovered this bird on Thursday.
