An adult *Mew Gull* was at Chatfield reservoir this morning in the South Platte arm of the lake. When I saw it from the old heron overlook it was resting amid a large grebe flock, and then flew up and around and I was not able to determine where it ended up. Probably still around there somewhere, though. A *Red-necked Grebe* was hugging the edge of the dam, being underwater more than above. A *Northern * *Shrike* was in the Marina sand spit area. I enjoyed a *Townsend's Solitaire *singing at the old heron overlook parking lot. A *Say's Phoebe* was at the Swim Beach.
A *Golden-crowned Kinglet* was down out of the forest heights at Massey Draw in Ken Caryl Valley, foraging in junipers and oaks with some Yellow-rumpeds. Stragglers or other migrants in the area there were 1 *Gray Catbird*, 1 *Green-tailed Towhee*, 1 *Say's Phoebe*, and 1 *Lincoln's Sparrow*. Mann Reservoir at South Valley Park had returning *Buffleheads* and *Hooded Mergansers*.
