[cobirds] Great Blue Heron

2021-02-14 Thread Wayne Wathen
Not a super rare bird but on my cool run (not like today) at Cherry Creek State Park, I did observe a Great Blue Heron in the creek south of the main park road near where a bridge crosses over the Cherry Creek. It was sort of protected from the wind there but it surprised me. Happy Valentine's

This morning about 10:45 the Boulder Bird Club was at Walden Ponds and we observed a flock of birds off to the east, approximately over the White Rocks area. We were able to watch them soar and identified them as Great Blue Herons. Thankfully they worked their way toward us and we counted 65 -

In response to Linda's friend's great blue heron question, I'm writing to report something similar on I saw my pond a few years ago. I was watching a great blue heron fish and saw him bring a good-sized fish up on the lawn, peck at it a couple of times and then pick it up and take it back

2016-10-17 Thread 'Deborah Carstensen' via Colorado Birds
After sunning himself for two 10 minute sessions, a great blue heron walked into my pond, hung out for a few minutes and then proceeded to kill and eat a muskrat . I think the muskrat was a juvenile but was still pretty large. As with last year, I have up to 150 cormorants roosting

In Daughenbaugh Open Space north of Cherry St. and Coal Creek in Louisville, I saw an amazing sight Sunday evening: a GBH stalking baby prairie dogs! I didn't see it catch one, but I couldn't help but imagine the heron trying to swallow a prairie dog. It might not be so different from swallowing

Saw a Great Blue Heron and a Snowy Egret in a sort of odd place tonight just after 7pm...in the pond just north of the Broomfield Library. Both were on the northern shoreline. I've seen the Heron there a couple of times this spring, but not the Egret. There was a Heron there for many weeks last sp
