A new record high for September
was set today as highs reached 100 degrees!
Winds were 6-7 mph with gusts to 16 mph.
Rebecca Kosten and I had some business in Parker. Afterwards we continued to the Walker Gravel Pond (Douglas).
The Common Loon continued swimming around mostly in the middle of the pond. Three Snowy Egrets walked the shore. Twelve Double-crested Cormorants (no Neotropic Cormorant) stood on a small island at the southeast corner.
No hummingbirds were found at the only feeder at the Castlewood Canyon State Park Visitor's Center. Later circling around to the west side, nothing uncommon was found. Bobolinks appear to have departed the Winkler Ranch south of the State Park.
Highlight, but a small one, a female and one young Wild Turkey walked along Castlewood Canyon Road between the Ranch and southern entrance to the State Park.
