Cobirders,
I checked out a bunch of lakes in the Loveland area this afternoon (Saturday, March 30). Upper Hoffman Lake and Cattail Pond were both notably chock full of waterfowl with good variety, but nothing rare. The Trumpeter Swan apparently has moved on. The best gull action was at Horseshoe Lake's west side, best viewed from the end of Engelman Place, off Monroe St. Lots of pink-breasted Franklin's Gulls, and 3 adult Lesser Black-backed Gulls were among hundreds of California Gulls and Ring-billed Gulls, with a smattering of American Herring Gulls. Gulls were fairly close for viewing, but a telescope is needed for quality views. I have posted photos in my Recent Sightings gallery at www.pbase.com/quetzal.
