Nest usurped by horned owl

[Laura Gorman]

Last year (and perhaps previous years?), there was a nest of red- tailed hawks along the Riverwalk/Arkansas River in Cañon City.  I checked today to see if the hawks were getting started again in the same nest, but discovered a Great Horned Owl sitting in the nest.  I will check again to see how the situation unfolds.

At least 20 yellow rumpled warblers today along that Riverwalk trail.
