Cottonwood Marsh - Walden Ponds - Boulder

[Ira Sanders]

Birders,

I was at Cottonwood Marsh (though there's not a lot of water) around Noon (yes Joe, 12:00) and saw the following:

1 Tundra Swan (presumably, as it was sleeping)

6 Canvasback

3 Cinnamon Teal

1 Hooded Merg

And:

Shoveler, Green-wing Teal, Bufflehead, RN Duck, Goldeneye, and a few other dabblers.

20 species in all.

I did see something I had never seen before: A Kingfisher perched (sitting) on a gravel pile.  Wish I'd had my camera.
