Richard Stevens:
Today was uneventful birding wise. High temperature was 72 degrees. It was windy 13-14 mph most of the afternoon.
Rebecca and I stopped at several locations in eastern Denver and Aurora.
We could not find the Eastern Bluebirds (Denver County) and Brown Thrasher (Adams) reported yesterday along the First Creek Trail.
Two Pectoral Sandpipers were relocated at the Lowry Westerly Creek Wetlands. They turned out to be the highlight of our day.
We scoped Cherry Creek Reservoir (Arapahoe) at least five times. The Surf Scoters found on 10/11 did not were not found; they may have moved on.
Similarly, the Surf Scoter at Aurora Reservoir was not relocated either. We only scoped the Lake from the upper swim beach parking area and the east end of the dam.
Our next stop was Barr Lake (Adams). The American Golden-Plover and Sabine's Gull reported yesterday also were not found today.
We drove through the DIA Airport; however did not find the Burrowing Owl reported yesterday.
No Short-eared Owls appeared along the DIA Owl Loop.
