A Snowy Day Around Denver

March 1, 2014

Richard Stevens:

Rebecca Kosten and I birded a little around Adams County today.  Snow and temperatures in the 20s limited our drive.

Little moved around Barr Lake.  Thousands of geese were in the field at the corner of Tower Road and 128th avenue.  These included five Snow Geese and one Ross's Goose.

Few birds moved around the Rocky Mountain Arsenal.  Both Lake Ladora and Lower Derby Lake are still ice covered.  Nothing responded to recordings played at the Ladora cattails (Virginia Rail tape) or Marys Lake (Swamp Sparrow tape).

Bison were the highlight of our drive.
