While doing chores, I passed through Cherry Creek State Park. The lake is ice covered and few birds are around. The Northern Shrike was found again in the Russian Olive Trees along the road into the shooting range.
Two Bald Eagles stood on the ice and watched the many ducks swimming around the small open water in the middle of the lake. I did not have my scope and could not identify most of the waterfowl. There were no Swans.
Dark morph Red-tailed Hawks appear to outnumber western Red-tailed Hawks. I counted 4 dark morph and only 2 western Red-tailed Hawks today.
