Hi All,

If anyone is interested there is a family of American Coot at the pond behind 24 Hour Fitness on South Chambers Way. From Arapahoe Rd. turn south on Chambers Way. The pond will be on the left. The babies are showing reds and oranges on their heads. They look like lil devils. If you have never seen one this young it is worth taking a look.

Thank you, Cheri, for this posting.  At noon today, June 19, I saw two adult coots and seven, red-headed babies.  What fun!
