A Trip for Bison With Friends

January 26, 2020

Richard Stevens:

Temperatures reached a pleasant 52 degrees.  Winds were 9-10 mph with gusts to 13 mph.

Rebecca and I took friends out to see the Bison at Rocky Mountain Arsenal (Adams).  Two adult Bald Eagles thrilled our guests.  Somewhat strange was that one of the Eagles stood on the side of the road near mile 5.0.

After driving the wildlife loop, we stopped by Lake Ladora.  The Lesser Black-backed Gull was standing on the eastern ice.  

Few waterfowl swam in the water at Lower Derby Lake; two days ago, the Lake was completely ice covered.

We passed through Cherry Creek Reservoir (Arapahoe) after dinner.  Nothing uncommon was encountered.  We waited until dusk and civil twilight.  No owls appeared this evening.
