Denver City Park Fallout (pelicans, snow geese, ruddy ducks)

[Eric Lutomski]

During the snow storm today around 2:00 PM 10 American White Pelicans flew onto duck lake in Denver's city park. With the pelicans there were about 50 snow geese 5000 Canada/cackling geese and an assortment of waterfowl including 40 ruddy ducks, the highest number I've counted on duck lake. As the snow stopped around 4:30 the entire flock took off to the north and all the remained were 4 Hooded Mergansers and a couple pairs of Canada Geese and Mallards. It was a short but very neat experience in city park today.
