to Colorado Birds
Yep, sorry for the alarm - they are decoys. Left the house to go up in the mountains w/o bins - driving my wife’s car (she doesn’t keep any in her car). When we got to the park, it’s a little cloudy and I think I’m seeing swans! They are fooling park visitors as well, as there was a guy on a bike watching them too. Of course I didn’t want to get too close and disturb them so I took some crappy cell-phone shots. I just got a new phone and my gmail google-groups password is not set up in this device, so I call Marilyn and ask her to post it and send her some pics. Then, later i hear about the post earlier in the week. Well I don’t look at COBirds that often so the post is waaaay down the list. NOW i see it. But I’m still not completely convinced because I was sure they were moving! Marilyn doesn’t know how to I remove a post in COBirds, so it stays up. So, on the way back we stopped at the park and now the sun it out and I can see that all three pairs are right where we left them, and I can see that the neck and head have a seam near the base. Sorry kids, excitement got the best of me on this one. . . Beers are on me. . .
