Marston Reservoir, Denver

[Tina Jones]

Today, in Denver County I saw one, Lesser Black-backed Gull, from the fence, [which borders Marston Reservoir on the west side]. The water has dropped some in Marston. If you look from the west fence, next to the road, you will see a sand spit[this spit has been under water for about 6 weeks]. One Herring Gull and many Ring-billed Gulls were present, with the Lesser Black-backed Gull bobbing in the water next to the spit.
 
I could find no Loons at Marston today, but lot's of Mergansers, including 14 Red-breasted Mergansers and Western Grebes.
 
Happy Birding !
