No problem for this first time visitant from Mexico;it sings very loudly and sits in plain sight for all to see. It is found at the second stream-crossing at South Fork in the canyon. Also present are all the usual migrants. In late april it\ was still snowing on the top at Rustlers Park. There is a white-fronted goose at Bosque del Apache Refuge in New Mexico. White-winged doves were at Caballo Dam in New Mexico. Patricia R. Snider,LANL, Los Alamos,N.M. 667-4584.
