Drive Around the DIA Owl Loop

December 21, 2015

Richard Stevens:

After searching for owls all night in Larimer County, I drove the DIA Owl Loop before heading home for some sleep.

At 6:30 am, it was 27 degrees; anemometer reading was 3 mph.  Raptors were numerous.

No Snowy Owl or Short-eared Owls appeared.

Raptors:
Prairie Falcon (3)
Peregrine Falcon (1 or 2)
Red-tailed Hawk (7)
Rough-legged Hawk (2)
Ferruginous Hawk (3)
American Kestrel (2)

No Snow Buntings were found in the hundreds of Horned Larks flying around.
