A quick trip
out to Smith Reservoir. We saw two
turkey vultures flying close to the ground. On the reservoir there were buffleheads,
common golden-eyes, mallards, coots and ruddy ducks. We hoped to see grebes at Smith and indeed we
saw numerous western grebes. Along the
north shore we saw some white geese. They were too far away to distinguish
between snow or Ross’s geese. We thought
they were probably snow geese in that they are the more common white goose in
the San Luis Valley.
Later, back
in town, we saw a hairy woodpecker and a Brewer’s blackbird during our daily
walk.
