[cobirds] Re: Crested Caracara - Douglas Co, Chatfield SP area

Tim Ryan who works at Reuter-Hess Reservoir in Parker saw the Caracara circling the dam about 10:45 this morning.  He did not have

binoculars with him at the time so is going by shape.  Reuter-Hess is about 13 miles south of Chatfield.  Reuter-Hess is restricted access so

you need permission to enter.

This morning I was forwarded nice photos of a Crested Caracara reported from the Highline Canal near Wildlife Way, outside the south border of Chatfield State Park.  This is a tad north and east of the pond where the Trumpeter Swan spent a few months this past winter.  The bird was last seen a couple hours ago flying towards Chatfield SP, but am unsure of direction of flight, i.e. north towards the model airplane field and the open land there or towards the Gravel ponds on the Jeff Co side of Chatfield.   

I haven't heard if it has been relocated or not and don't have any more details at this point, but I  wanted to pass along the information.  Please post success or failures in any searches!

I don't have permission to share photos at this point.

Good luck!
