All,

There's been a male Barrow's Goldeneye on the S Platte, south of the 88th access point. Maybe .5 to .75 mile. From a large gravel bar, look N.

Travis's sighting on Friday was in Denver County in the Overland Pond Park/Overland Golf Course reach of the South Platte @ West Florida Avenue.
He reported it on this eBird checklist (https://ebird.org/checklist/S98103516), including a photo.
Last winter, a male Barrow's spent weeks at the same location, hanging out mostly with one of the female Common Goldeneye there.

Good birding,

Patrick O'Driscoll
