[cobirds] Burrowing Owls and security guards, Adams county

Today at 10 am my husband and I got out of our car on 96th Avenue near DIA and briefly saw 2 Burrowing Owls. We used our spotting scope & we noticed a couple of oil company trucks not too far away from the burrows.  We drove on & returned about 20 minutes later. At the same spot was a HSS security vehicle, which pulled up next to us & told us we had to move on. We protested that we were only birdwatchers, but the woman officer kept yelling until we closed our windows. She then harassed another car driven by a birder  with binocs across the road. Just a warning! I don't think they have any jurisdiction over the public highway, but I remain open to education.
