DIA Owl Loop

July 23, 2018

Richard Stevens:

Terry and I returned to Denver early this morning.  With inclement weather predicted for the next week, owling conditions appeared poor.

Before go home for some welcomed sleep, I drove the DIA Owl Loop (Adams/Denver Counties).

Burrowing Owls were relocated:
Gun Club Road, south of 112th avenue (10)
West Cargo Street & Third Creek (2)
Trussville Road & 114th (southwest corner) (4)
120th Avenue prairie dog town (2)

I stopped at the Oil Office complex, the only building down Gun Club Road.  A Barn Owl flew out of the pines right along Gun Club and landed in pines behind the radio tower to the east

The Rose-breasted Grosbeak reported two days ago was not relocated.

Nothing uncommon was found at nearby Barr Lake (Adams).  Two Barn Owls are again using the owl nesting boxes.
