Richard Stevens:
A much cooler day with a high temperature of only 77 degrees. Winds were 6-7 mph with gusts to 12 mph.
While at doing chores, I searched unsuccessfully for the Caspian Tern at Cherry Creek Reservoir (Arapahoe).
A stop at Aurora Reservoir (about 11 miles east of Cherry Creek Reservoir) was more successful. After scoping the lake from the upper swim beach parking area, I walked from the western dam parking area to the northwest corner.
A Caspian Tern was standing on the bottom of the dam along with four hundred+ Ring-billed Gulls, thirty+ California Gulls, one Franklin's Gull and one Herring Gull.
The Caspian Tern could have been the Cherry Creek Reservoir bird reported earlier in the day.
