Re: [cobirds] Mute Swan - Arapahoe
It is not uncommon for a mute swan to show up from the Polo club which is next-door to South platte park.

[cobirds] Re: Mute Swan - Arapahoe
Hugh, I too saw this bird and posted about it - I was informed it’s an escaped domestic from the Polo Club grounds. I was sad - thought I’d found a rarity! I’ve seen it from the Mineral Ave sidewalk regularly for about the last two months...

[cobirds] Mute Swan - Arapahoe
Paul Malinowski sent a photo of a Mute Swan that he saw on Cooley Lake, South Platte Park. (If Cooley is the first lake north of Mineral & west of the river). He saw it, I think, Dec. 9. Have other seen this bird? Does it remain? Did it escape from somewhere? Does it qualify as a 'wild' bird?

[cobirds] Gulls, Arapahoe County
Every day for the last several weeks, about half an hour before sunrise, about 500 gulls (probably more) have flown over my house from West to East, very high. And often I see at least 100 flying East to West about half an hour after sunset. Does anyone have any idea where they're coming from and where they're going to? I'm just East of Englewood.

[cobirds] Yellow-bellied Sapsucker Arapahoe Couonty
Was watching a Hairy hopping along a branch when all of a sudden an adult female YBSA popped into view. Stayed around for a good 15 minutes giving me views from all angles. It is the 3rd time I've seen it this month, so perhaps it's staying around. (1809 E.
