Amy Davenport: transcript of telephone call:
Richard Stevens is at a Dude Ranch in Las Animas County. He is leading bird trips and giving bird talks.
Extreme weather is hitting Las Animas County this week. Thunderstorms roll in during the afternoons. Strong winds are not helping his owling trips.

A female Hepatic Tanager with two young at what Richard labels as private ranch # 1 on 7/9.
Many Cassin's Kingbirds, a few Juniper Titmice also found.
A female Hepatic Tanager and one young at private ranch # 2 on 7/10.
Cassin's Kingbirds are doing well over Las Animas County.
They were invited to private ranch # 3 and relocated a male and female Vermilion Flycatcher in Sheep Pen Canyon area on 7/10. The Vermilion Flycatchers have been noticed for at least a month.
Between storms they put out the owl listening stations. One caught a calling Northern Saw-whet Owl at private ranch # 2 on 7/10.
