On a whim, Urling & I just went over to the Walker Pit, (west of Franktown). What a good whim..

We puzzled over and then figured out that we viewed Marbled Godwits -- 71 of them! Also a couple of Willets and 8 American Avocets. Plus a dozen or so Gadwalls & shovelers, 4 Lesser Scaup, an Eared Grebe and half a dozen Buffleheads.

The mass of godwits really amazed us

I don't know the area but maps show Walker Pit to be east of Franktown. Please confirm.
