V pleasant day to be out birding. Clear Creek was actually chilly in the morning.
I did OK on breeding warblers--highlights were a Worm-eating popping up on a branch near the Cabins parking lot & giving me drop dead views of all his fieldmarks including the best ever looks at the head pattern. Then on the Prairie Warbler trail I heard a soft chup note & a male Kentucky Warbler perched up right in front of me, a fat caterpillar in his bill. On my way out, I stopped at a fishing pullout & was delighted to hear a Veery singing. As I was enjoying that, a Cerulean landed just 5 feet from me--I don't know who was more surprised, the warbler or me. It made a quick retreat but I still had nice looks.
