Richard Stevens:
Rebecca Kosten and I drove up Mt. Evans Road (Clear Creek County) today. Fortunately, we arrived around sunrise (the day turned nasty by noon with high winds and snow).
A White-tailed Ptarmigan was found on the west hillside at the switchbacks south of Summit Lake. None was found at the top of the road.
On the way down, we found 2 Brown-capped Rosy Finches on the edge of Summit Lake. We stayed an hour, found no additional Rosy Finches.
Near dusk, we drove Michigan Creek Road (Park County). Two Northern Pygmy-Owls were found (heard only). One was just east of the "Three-toed Woodpecker trail" and the other was an additional 80 yards farther west up the road.
