Daily Postcard: Hooded Warblers Spotted In Water Canyon

Daily Postcard: A male hooded warbler perched on a branch on Monday in Upper Water Canyon. Last year, hooded warblers nested along the reservoir road in Los Alamos, the first time ever in New Mexico. They’re back, this time in Upper Water Canyon, about 3.1 miles away. The male was first seen June 3, and has been there for more than two weeks now. A female was seen on June 10, but has not been seen since. Hopefully she’s sitting on a well-hidden nest now, and we’ll see her again on June 23, gathering food for her nestlings.
