Got an early start this morning. Arrived at the park a little after eight with only a slightly uncomfortable temp of 40. I was surprised to see very few Swallows after yesterday’s extravaganza but my disappointment was overcome by an abundance of Osprey actively fishing the Arkansas River. I saw at least five of them.

Sightings:
Birds:
Canada geese, Starlings, Robins, Cormorant, Flicker, Violet Green Swallows, Osprey, Ducks
Critters: Mule Deer

A osprey soars high over the Arkansas River at Lake Pueblo State Park in Southern Colorado. The big birds have returned for the season and have made themselves busy building nests and fishing for food.
