[cobirds] Lake Loveland, Larimer County
On Monday Lake Loveland had a tightly knit group of 18 Cackling Geese on the ground area around the Lake. The Lake was frozen over but many Canada Geese and Ring-Billed Gulls were hanging out on the grassy area. Some Mallards were resting in the shade of a tree - guess the sun was too hot for them? Boyd Lake was frozen completely - only ice fishermen there, plus one Robin Warner and Ruth Reeser- Loveland -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.

June 25th: Boyd Lake State Park: Killdeer in abundance - high percentage young of the year. 2 Horned Grebes and one Gadwall Duck. Western Grebes feeding their "Grebelings." A New Word? I could be tossed out of the Bird Watchers World for that! Warner Reeser Loveland, Co. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.

I meant to write Boyd Lake not Barr Lake where I saw the Inca Doves. Sorry if I misled anyone.

[cobirds] Larimer Inca Dove
May 7 = 2 Inca Doves at Boyd Lake State Park. Take the first road south - drive past the camp ground to end of the road. They were in the parking lot at road end. They were not skittish. Also saw 2 Swainsons Hawks north end of same road. Warner Reeser Loveland -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.

Sone more signs suggesting migration is moving through at Boyd Lake State Park. Snowy Egret (1) Osprey (1) Franklin's Gulls (4) The ever present Ring-billed Gulls (many) California Gulls (3) Common Tern (3) I hope someone else gives a look -they appeared to have more white on the forehead than Forster's Terns. LEAST TERN (1) Ruth saw it first with a group of the Franklin's - It is tiny!!

We visited Boyd Lake State Park on Sept. l and did not see much migration activitie there so far. however today gave a lttle increase in some areas - Red-winged Blackbirds and Grackles are forming in large flocks. I showed one of the Park staff an Osprey flying - she said she had seen two there earlier. Some Pelicans showing signs of migrational intents - one Vesper Sparrow but no Sparrow groups observed by us. Almost no waterfowl - a Lonesome George Mallard here and there, 2 Pied Bill Grebes and a few Killdeer, probably in migration. No big rafts of ducks on the reservoir which we expected to see. We keep watching so we might see big numbers anytime now.
