Hello,
As an update on the Tundra Swan as of
Tuesday, November 19th: I arrived at Walden Ponds at 9:45am on
November 19th. The Tundra Swan was on the east part of Cottonwood
Marsh ponds. As I parked and reached for my binoculars, the
swan took flight and headed south. It flew farther south than
Sawhill ponds. (Don't know if it was me or the jogger + dog or
fate that caused it to fly.)
I'm guessing that it's moving from Walden
Ponds to some of the other lakes, possibly Valmont reservoir, Sombrero Marsh,
Baseline Reservoir as these were all areas it was seen last year. I
didn't have time to check these other lakes out to see where it had flown.
(Walden Ponds and other possible lakes are
located in Boulder County)
