Yesterday's DFO sponsored Big Sit! at Chatfield State Park was once again a
great success!
Over fifty people stopped by to participate and/or see what it was all about
including a Cub Scout troop!
70 species were tallied throughout the day with highlights being a
Violet-green Swallow, Lesser Black-backed Gull and Golden and Bald Eagles.
A behavior highlight was watching a Bald Eagle chasing an Osprey until the
Osprey dropped its fish (onto dry land)...which the eagle did NOT retrieve!
Thanks to Colorado Parks and Wildlife for supplying the signs, table and
having a canopy available in case the weather changed. Thank you!
Thanks to all that came out to enjoy beautiful day!
