South Platte Park and Reservoir had a lot of interesting birds today. 

At the Carson Nature Center, a group of birders and I found a continuing Harris's Sparrow, and later a continuing Audubon Warbler

Under the mineral bridge, I that heard many birders saw the continuing American Dipper, although I was unable to locate it. 

At Blackrock lake, the continuing Tundra Swan was hanging out on the west shore.

at South Platte Reservoir there were 6 Trumpeter Swans, the continuing Black Scoter, a few Red-Breasted Mergansers, a late Double-Crested Cormorant, Greater Scaup and more. 

Near the C470 bridge, a Male Northern Pintail continued, along with an American Pipit and Rough-Legged Hawk. 

I've attached ebird checklists with photos.
