This morning, the Larimer County landfill hosted:
Lesser Black-backed Gull 2 (1 ad, 1 second-cycle)
Herring Gull 2 (first cycle)
California Gull 40
Ring-billed Gull 120
Franklin's Gull 100

A mile south, two Burrowing Owls were back at their traditional locations at Coyote Ridge Natural Area near the parking lot. Vesper Sparrows were singing here and at the landfill.

Nearby Dixon Reservoir was active. Highlights were Rock Wrens, House Wrens, lesser goldfinches, orange-crowned warblers, yellow-rumped warblers and a resident Western Scrub-Jay.

Birders are welcome at the landfill but need to check in with an attendant on Saturdays or the main office on weekdays. Closed on Sunday.
