Bobolinks Douglas County

[Dan Stringer]

After wrapping up my Elbert BBS yesterday, I drove over to Winkler Ranch on the road west of Castlewood Canyon SP (Douglas Co) to look for Bobolinks in the alfalfa fields. At 12:30 p.m., 93 degrees, I didn't expect them to be active but there they were. Three of them flew west, fluttering up and back down into the field, eventually landing on the fence line just past the small red barn, further west than I typically see them.
