Richard Stevens:
Temperatures reached close to 90 degrees today; winds were 10-11 mph with gusts to 18 mph.
I spent the morning at Banner Lakes Wildlife Area (Weld County). No Long-eared Owls could be found today. A Townsend's Warbler was loosely associated with two Yellow-rumped Warblers and a pair of Black-capped Chickadees in the windbreak west of Pond 7.
A Spotted Towhee was in the Russian Olive Trees near Pond 4.
I needed to stretch my legs after a couple of days driving 300+ miles and walked over to Pond 13. The highlight of the morning was a Yellow-billed Cuckoo!
I have enjoyed good fortune in finding them at Banner Lakes Wildlife Area in the past (8/7/2010, 8/3/2011, and two on 7/30/2012).
