Richard Stevens:
High temperature today was 63 degrees on this pleasant fall day. Winds were 3-4 mph most of the afternoon.
I briefly stopped at Cherry Creek Reservoir (Arapahoe) to see if the Semipalmated Plover had stayed over night. Fourteen people and two unleashed dogs walked around the Pelican Point.
The Semipalmated Plover was still around; however, it was much farther south than previous visits. A lone American Avocet was also observed.
We then drove through the Rocky Mountain Arsenal (Adams). Nothing uncommon was encountered.
I walked to Havana Ponds and found two American Avocets, two Baird's Sandpipers, one Greater Yellowlegs and two Lesser Yellowlegs.
Continuing to the Rod and Gun Club Pond did not add anything to my day list.
The First Creek Trail (outside the eastern side of the Arsenal) added only a Lincoln's Sparrow and a dozen Chipping Sparrows to my day list.
