[Birdtalk] Little Cottonwood Canyon

[ghardies2 at msn.com]

Hiked up to Red Pine Lake and Maybird Lakes today.  The emphasis was hiking with birding secondary so i am sure there was more then I noted.  Ruby-crowned Kinglets were calling almost the entire length of the hike.  Swainson's Thrushs were also numerous.  I also heard Warbling Vireos, Clark's Nutcracker, American Robins, Dark-eyed Juncos, Olive-sided Flycatcher and a Willow Flycatcher.  One Yellow-rumped Warbler showed itself at the parking lot.  

If you go, be aware that the snow is as low as the Maybird/Red Pine trail junction.  Above Red Pine Lake it is pretty much all snow.
