An adult Brown Pelican has been present today since 9AM at Lake Beckwith, SW Pueblo County. I left the Lake shortly after 10AM & it was still there near the SW end of the Lake. Strong WSW winds may be responsible for its presence--the 1st record for the Greenhorn Valley in the Rye/Colorado City area.
Other birds of interest at the Lake include Osprey, juv. Cooper's Hawk, G. Yellowlegs, + Cinnamon & B-w Teal splitting time between the Lake & the Canon National Bank Pond on CSH165, Hollydot Golf Course, about a mile east of Lake Beckwith
