Owling At Cherry Creek Reservoir

Owling November 18, 2011

Richard Stevens:

After dinner I went back to Cherry Creek Reservoir. I heard a Long-eared Owl east of the Lake Loop at 8:30 PM, later saw it (with night vision binoculars) in the trees along the shore at about halfway to the Prairie Loop.

I did not go near the Rowing Club, did not want to scare the Harris's Sparrow. It should be there in the morning. Either in the short grasses north of the building or the tall weeds along the east side. Sparrow was first found by Kirk Huffstater, not me.
