Re: [cobirds] Viewing McLellen Res - Arapahoe Cty

[David Suddjian]

Just to add, a challenge from Writers Vista Park (in addition to the trees
that are often in the way) is that the viewing is southward and so the
light is usually not so good in winter, unless it is very cloudy. But that
side is a pleasant birding area. There is also the trail along Highline
Canal which skirts the north side of the upper half of the reservoir if one
wants to get some walking exercise.

[cobirds] Viewing McLellen Res - Arapahoe Cty

[Steve Stachowiak]

Cobirders,

David Suddjian recently posted information and sightings for McLellen 
Reservoir.  In addition to viewing from the spot David noted at County Line 
Rd and Lucent Blvd intersection, there is also a dirt pull off (watch for 
potholes) at the southwest end of the reservoir just before the Harley 
dealership.  The affords view on the western third of the reservoir where 
it is the deepest and widest.  This same section of reservoir can also be 
viewed from the north side by parking at Writers Vista Park which is 
located south of W Mineral Ave.  There is a walking trail that goes to the 
west along the fence line along the northern edge of the reservoir which 
includes the small cove which is difficult to see from the south side along 
County Line Road.

Good Birding,
Steve Stachowiak
Highlands Ranch, CO
