All:

Did a walk around the Stearns Lake area (Boulder County Open Space) on Sunday. Here's what I observed:

4 bald eagles - 2 adults, 2 immatures

3 American kestrels

6 red tailed hawks

1 ferruginous hawk

2 northern harriers

A bit slow compared to last year. No rough-legged hawks present. The lake had waves of cackling and Canada geese coming in and out - sometimes completely dead, other times over 1000 geese. Some American tree sparrows and white crowned sparrows present also.
