Great Afternoon at Cherry Creek State Park

November 18, 2010

Bryan Ehlmann;

When Sue and I went through Cherry Creek State Park, we found Richard Stevens at the picnic tables with gull wings, southwest side.

Richard was looking at the Red necked Grebe 20 feet from shore.

He also put his scope on the Red throated Loon, Pacific Loon and three Common Loons.

We walked to the end of the road below the dam and saw two Bonaparte's Gulls and the Mew Gull flying around the dam's tower.

Many Ring-billed Gulls, dozens of California Gulls and at least two Herring Gulls were swimming off the dam. We could not find any Lesser Black-backed Gulls.
