The following bodies were still frozen for most part--Angel Lake, Woods Lake, Neff Lake, Neuman's Lake, Seeley Lake, 35th Ave Ponds, Arrowhead Lake, O St Ponds and Siebring Reservoir.  Total of 39 species seen.

Highlights:

Saturday led a great bunch of aspiring Denver Audubon's Master Birder class along Raptor Alley.

Thanks, Gary Lefko
