Temperatures again reached near 60 degrees. Winds were 7-8 mph. Rebecca and I returned to Washington Park (Denver) hoping for a better photo of the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. Doug Kibbe relocated the sapsucker yesterday.
It took about 20 minutes to spy the Yellow-bellied Sapsucker in one of its favorite trees (#5). Unfortunately, we only saw parts of the bird at anyone time. After about 45 minutes, we abandoned the chance of getting another photo (see photo on the Colorado Birding Society's Photo Library:

We continued enjoying the fantastic day with a walk at Barr Lake (Adams). Both a Barn Owl and Long-eared Owl were relocated.
No Short-eared Owls appeared this evening along the DIA Owl Loop. That is for us, Mike McCoy relocated one along Gun Club Road, Third Creek area.

Hi Richard,
I have been trying to see the famous barn owl, which lives in the nest box by the trail at barr lake, but no luck so far... Could u point at any other location, which might have a better probability of seeing a barn owl
