Now the Brant is just taunting us... Chatfield State Park, Douglas CO

[Matt Crooks]

So, my son and I were finally able to spot the Brant earlier this week in Redstone park, after seven fruitless trips. Today, my son and I took a quick swing through Chatfield to see what was happening.

Right as we were leaving the south entrance of the park, we both said at the same time...there is the brant. Sure enough he was just hanging out near the prairie dog hills, and then flew towards the marina as we drove away. If he shows up in my back yard tonight, we are formally adopting him.

We got a good photo of him the other day squawking at a goose. It is in our gallery at www.cheezwhizdom.com

Best,

Matt and Carson Crooks, Littleton.
