After I left, as I was driving down Elbert road, I saw an abandoned old farm house. I have seen many owls in old abandoned houses, so I stopped to see if maybe there would be an owl in it. Yes, there was! As I walked around the back of the house, the owl jumped into the window and I was able to snap a quick picture before it flew off. Yay! I have been hoping to find an owl in the window of an old barn for years.
There was a Prairie Falcon by the barn. It must have been upset by me being there and started flying around making all kinds of noise. There was also a huge flock of Horned Larks, about 40 or so.
After I left that awesome spot, I stopped by the Ramah Wildlife Area and found a Northern Shrike and a Northern Harrier. Besides that, there wasn't much else.
Overall, it was a fabulous birding day!

Jonathon Bookman found a Varied Thrush at Homestead Ranch Regional Park last night. He and I both re-found it this morning. It's hanging out near the pavilion and parking area and is giving great views.--Kevin AshColorado Springs
