Yesterday I found an adult and a juvenile white Snow Goose feeding in an ag field on MacKenzie Ave (about a half mile north of the Arkansas River on the east side of the road) along with a couple hundred American Crows, about a hundred Canada Geese and 8 Greater White-fronted Geese (first of the season). I could not locate the Snow Geese or Greater White-fronted Geese today though the crows were further east of town in ag fields. The fields on MacKenzie they were feeding in are Dept of Corrections property and there are more of their ag fields up the hill to the east that are not visible from any public area--many geese and other birds feed on their property that cannot be accessed (trespassing on these properties will get you busted as they have staff watching all the time and they take trespass seriously)
Today I found a single adult male Eastern Bluebird on my friends property just east of Canon City. I could not locate other Eastern Bluebirds there but had seen several distant bluebirds in the area that may have also been Eastern.
