Spent a quarter hour watching a flock of these tiny guys feasting on seeds along the trail.

4 recently fledged birds. Parents were still in the area and bringing them food.

with Cackling Goose; 1st Colorado record found by Steve Mlodinow

Owl was resting on a rooftop in a new housing development built in a sand dune area. He just sat there for about three hours. It had no fear of humans and showed relaxed behavior.

I watched this event for approximately sixty minutes, before leaving the area. I returned later to find that the elk survived.

Barrow's x Common Goldeneye Hybrid

Heavily marked, Juvenile Red-tail

Also pictured: Rainbow Trout. The water was SO clear!
