[cobirds] Geese and Scaup, Fort Logan Cemetery ,Denver,11/22

Hi All,

I have been wondering when I would see Greater Scaup at the Cemetery. Well today, 11/22 I saw  1, male, and 1, female Greater Scaup at Fort Logan Cemetery. They were next to a Lesser Scaup and you could really see the difference between the shape of the head. 

Lot's of Canada Geese. There has been up to 2 juvenile Snow Geese in the Cemetery. The Cemetery is on S. Sheridan, [with W. Quincy to the south and  highway 285 to the north of the Cemetery. As one enters the Cemetery there is a first pond right next to the entrance, and if you continue east on the road you come to your next pond. Birds fly back and forth from pond to pond. Keep your eyes open for Greater White-fronted Goose. I have not seen one yet  but they show up at the Cemetery usually every other year.

Happy Birding,
