On a BCNA raptor survey today, we found a dark-morph Ferruginous Hawk on 63rd St, S of Nelson Rd. When we stopped for a look with the scope, we noticed that there was a red-tail in a tree on the other side of the road, maybe 1/4 mile away. We got a good look at the FEHA, but the RTHA came and chased it off just as I was getting set for a picture. It flew almost directly over us as it left.
There was just one Great-horned Owl in the tree where we have seen two on the past couple of surveys. Other findings: South Rabbit: 5 - Red-tailed Hawks 3 - American Kestrel 1 Bald Eagle Boulder Reservoir: 4 - Red-tailed Hawks 6 - American Kestrel Lykins Gulch: nil George Oetzel --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
