After many people searched today the YELLOW-BILLED LOON was NOT seen on
Chatfield Reservoir today. In the calm of the night last night the
reservoir nearly completely "flash froze". Through the course of the day
the water opened up a lot and a good variety of species was present. One
distant waterhole contained 10 Western Grebes, 9 Pied-billed Grebes and an
Eared Grebe...unfortunately that hole and others will likely freeze tonight
and the fate of those birds will be...
I suspect that if South Platte Reservoir is open the two Common Loons and
Yellow-billed Loon could have gone there, but more likely it is on Pueblo
Reservoir.
Nice bird with MANY people adding it to their life, state, and/or county
lists.
