COBirders, I made a trip to Jackson County today primarily to see the nesting Red-necked Grebes at Lake John. The Red-necked Grebes are still incubating eggs as are several Aechmophorus grebes. Both RNGR were on and very near the nest when I arrived around 7 a.m. Later in the morning the mate was far south on the lake near the west shore.
I also made stops at Delaney Lakes, Arapahoe NWR, and the Moose Visitor Center. While I observed around 60 species, there really wasn't any surprising finds. I was happy to find 3 fairly tall juvenile Sandhill Cranes in the tall Timothy grass between Delaney Lakes and Walden. Good July birding!
