Greetings - Today while traveling home from an Elks backpacking trip, I needed to stretch my legs, so I swung into Antero.
There I located a Long-tailed Jaeger who insisted on making me chase him about on the lake before settling down just off the fishing spit where I was able to get good photos. This bird appears a light-phased immature with a very white head and a different bird than the one found last weekend by Steve Mlodinow. Thanks to a friend who helped me untangle my initial ID challenge when I was away from my car and a field guide. Otherwise Antero is loaded with coots and thousands of ducks largely out of identification range (my legs not needing THAT much stretching). Good birding, Kathy Mihm Dunning Denver -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
