Richard Stevens:
After some personal business was taken care of in the morning, I wandered over to Fountain Creek Regional Park.
The Harris's Sparrow came below the feeders behind the Visitor's Center. The Ross's Goose was still at Rice's Pond. A Virginia Rail was found with some patience as I waited at the bridge over the hiking path at Rice's Pond outlet stream!
An interesting flyover was a raven. It was rather small in size. It had a smallish bill and tail. Could have been a Chihuahuan Raven; however, I had no way to confirm it.
Nearby Big Johnson Reservoir was slow. I hiked around to the eastern side and managed to pick out an adult Lesser Black-backed Gull among hundreds of Ring-billed Gulls. A single Herring Gull was among them.
