[cobirds] Horned grebes, Chatfield Res, Jeffco

Hello birders,

This afternoon around 3 pm Barb and I saw three horned grebes here: https://goo.gl/maps/EgNPQVP8F1s

(I inserted the two jpgs below from my computer by clicking on the blue photo icon in the posting line that has font size and other icons. Pretty easy. Thanks, David, for making this allowable.)

Signs of spring? A couple of dandelion blooms, but no sounds of frogs yet. Many fly fishermen on the South Platte River just south of Chatfield Reservoir. One of them explained to us that trout are moving upstream from the reservoir to spawn in the river. One fisherman seemed to get carried away--abandoned his rod for a hand held net. He missed. 

So not much evidence of spring, but some evidence of spring fever.

Good birding,
Tom Wilberding
Littleton, CO
