All - Today I hiked/snowshoed in Wild Basin, Rocky Mountain National Park. In the late morning, I located two Three-toed Woodpeckers. A female was working an area just east of where the "camper trail" joins the trail to Ouzel Falls (about 2.3 miles from the winter parking area). A male was very close to where the Copeland Falls trail re-joins the trail to Ouzel Falls (about 1.5 miles in). Snowshoes are not needed to access either of these locations, but the trail is likely to become increasingly icy over the next couple of days.
On my way home, I stopped briefly at Legion Park where another birder was scoping the lakes below. The Tundra Swan continues in its normal location in Hillcrest Reservoir. Also in Hillcrest was a Common Loon which as I left was still trying to figure out how to ingest the rather large fish it had caught. Good birding, Kathy Mihm Dunning Denver -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
