Rufous-capped warbler seen today at 11:16 a.m. MST. It was seen at the Florida Canyon above the dam working its way up steam crossing back and forth across the creek. It was traveling with a Ruby-crowned Kinglet and was seen by Kathie Brown and Jeff and Dawn Fine and 1 other couple. More photos and story to follow!
All photos taken by Kathie Brown with the Nikon D80 set in sports mode and the 70-300mm lens.
You get the picture!
