Arapahoe County In the Rain

April 20, 2018

Richard Stevens:

Temperatures reached 57 degrees; it was not near that temperature during our birding in the afternoon.  Winds were 17 mph with gusts to 30 mph.

Rebecca and I passed through Cherry Creek Reservoir while going to dinner.  A Common Loon was in the swim beach cove.  A Great-tailed Grackle was at the Cottonwood Wetlands area.  No White-faced Ibis or Long-eared Owls were encountered.  

Earlier I searched unsuccessfully for the Cattle Egret reported at Expo Park.  It was pouring down rain when I limped around the ponds.  No Egrets were around.
