Richard Stevens:
What a day, 78 degrees with winds 6 mph, gusts to 13 mph.
Barry Humboldt and I went to Genesee Mountain Park (Jefferson). Two Williamson's Sapsuckers were relocated north and south of the group picnic area.
Other birds found included two Red Crossbills, Red-breasted & Pygmy Nuthatches, Pine Siskins, Dark-eyed Juncos and Chipping Sparrows.
After dropping Barry off, I drove through Cherry Creek State Park (Arapahoe). One of the two Long-eared Owls was relocated. The owl was within six inches of a nest. We have decided to drop the listing from any rare bird alerts. Let us hope the pair decides to nest!
I could not relocate the Burrowing Owl at the prairie dog town at West Cargo Road and Third Creek today. No Short-eared Owls appeared along the DIA Owl Loop (Adams/Denver).

You spotted a few beauties but no owls, they are always fascinating to observe.
