TROCHET, J. (1991) Journal Cañon City, Fremont Co., Colorado. Elevation 5332 ft. June 18-19: To visit Jeff Trueman of the Recreation & Park District for per- (Corrit) mission to walk and bird along the Arkansas River in town, as this is the type locality for the species. Gratifyingly, he granted permission & location. He informed me that most of the city's streets of the Arkansas River was a park known locally as the River Walk, with access on both eastern & western ends, the park itself almost 2 miles long. After a bit of shopping and reserving a motel room, I walked to River Walk, first from the west end and from 16:15-17:45; then from the east end and from 18:05 to 20:00. Through town to river has a gentle gradient running to the east. Appropriate for the county, Fremont Cottonwoods are two dominant trees, with many old, large trees present, but all size classes were noted. Two kinds of willow (Black willow (?) / Coyote willow) contributed significantly to the riparian woodland, as to a lesser extent did Ash. There was a very little Russian olive and even less Tamarisk. Lots of grasses and forbs (ince several compositae) made up the green ground cover. There were a few marshes toward the east end of the park. These had Tupara & Scirpus as their dominant emergents, with a concentration of willows nearby. The bluff slopes on the south side of the river had big sagebrush, cholla and dry grass. The weather was partly cloudy, W. wind at temp., about 75-70°F. Species list for River Walk, Cañon City, June 18: Green-backed Heron - 5 ad Kiskadee - 2 H.O. Mallard - 2 ad ?, 6 young Rock Dove - 8 Virginia Rail - 1 H.O. Whirring Dove - 25
