Richard Stevens:
After hearing that the adult Little Blue Heron was seen again at the Sprat-Platte Park in Adams County, I headed that way.
Eventually, I walked from the park at McKay Road and 100th Avenue, south to 88th avenue (to the green/white tower about 0.4 miles south of 88th avenue) and back. Then up to 104th avenue and back
The Little Blue Heron was not relocated. However, there are many reservoirs in the area. Some of the shoreline cannot be scoped from the Platte River bike path.
Plenty of American White Pelicans, Double-crested Cormorants and common ducks are on the lakes and river. Most of the gulls flying around were Ring-billed Gulls.
It was an enjoyable cool day with mild winds. A great day for a hike in spite of missing my target bird.
