Hello All,
This morning Chuck Aid, Michael Kiessig, and I set out to do some
early season atlas work for the Bear Creek Watershed Breeding Bird
Atlas.
Lair of the Bear - no luck in finding N. Pygmy Owls. Two pair of
Dippers singing and displaying Territorial Behavior.
Red Rocks - pair of Prairie Falcons on Park Cave Rock calling,
visiting nest site, and very definitely ready to set up housekeeping.
Had a pair of Ravens bringing sticks to a nesting site (multiple
trips) on the west end of Creation Rock. Looked for, but did not
find a Peregrine Falcon on Ship Rock.
Also, thanks to Gwen Moore for putting out seed at the Red Rocks
feeders this morning. Golden-crowned Sparrow appeared several times
in the 15 minutes we watched.
Bear Creek Lake Park (BCLP) - On 2-20-13, Rob Raker and I found 3 pair
of Great Horned Owls in BCLP. Each of the pairs was perched next to
each other in a tree - definitely paired up. Today we found all 3
pair in the same respective areas. One of the pairs is sitting on
a nest, while the other two are still keeping close company, but not
yet on nests.
