One Tundra Swan was swimming west of the south side overlook at Hamilton Reservoir today around 10am. Probably one of the birds reported a while back by Nick Komar et al. Hopefully it will stick around for the upcoming CBC.
Changing the subject, I cruised a big loop of the western section of the Pawnee Grasslands (from Carr to Hereford) this afternoon while listening to the Bronco debacle in DC and saw very little: one Ferruginous Hawk, three Rough-legged Hawks, one prairie Merlin, one raven species, one Western Meadowlark (a fairly good bird on the northern plains this time of year), a few kestrels, a few harriers, and a bunch of Horned Larks. No Snowy Owls. No sparrows. No shrikes. No longspurs. No redpolls. No rosy-finches. No Snow Buntings. For what it's worth, probably nothing, I checked twice (morning and afternoon) for the Harris's Hawk near the Prospect Road Welcome Center in Fort Collins and did NOT see the bird.
