Another White-tailed Ptarmigan Search

April 4, 2011

Richard Stevens:

Mary Cullen, her husband Joe and I headed to Loveland Pass to search for White-tailed Ptarmigan. We found 2-4 White-tailed Ptarmigan. This was in spite of heavy snowfall. They were observed on the east side of highway 9 from the first pullover on the west side of highway 9, south of the Loveland Pass summit.

On the way back to Denver, we stopped at Red Rocks Park (Jefferson). The Curve-billed Thrasher, Golden-crowned Sparrow, Harris's Sparrow and 2 White-throated Sparrows all put in an appearance.
