[cobirds] Eurasian Wigeon Continues at Centennial Park, Canon City, Fremont County, CO

I also ventured to Canon City to try to find the aforementioned Eurasian Wigeon.  I tried many of the ponds around the area including the area where it was originally found.  Stopped by Centennial Park where I encountered a wide assortment of waterfowl of various types.  As the sun was setting the number of American Wigeon in the park easily topped 300, but the Eurasian Wigeon proved fairly easy to find.  Numerous other domesticated and quasi-domesticated ducks, geese, and swans were also present, including some pretty weird looking things. 

No sapsuckers were found, but a Golden Crowned Kinglet, several Song Sparrows, and a Pine Siskin were nice finds in the immediate vicinity.

Good Birding.
