Western Fremont County

I found nesting American Dippers up the Arkansas River including one pair feeding their noisy nestlings and one near a viable nest. I also heard a fourth American Dipper at a third location.

I also found another Black Phoebe (though I only one) a second location in western Fremont County. Nearby were a male and female Common Merganser in the river. I saw a Belted Kingfisher that I believe flew into a hole in a dirt hill near the river, likely a nest location. Also at this location was a Say's Phoebe. There were Yellow-rumped Warblers in the trees and shrubs along the river.
