About an hour ago, I saw a BROAD-WINGED HAWK at Meadowlake (off Mallard Drive in Falcon, east of Colorado Springs. ). It flew north-east towards Eastonville Road where I tried but did NOT refind it but had a nice "consolation prize" : a MERLIN near the dam. There was also a GREAT-HORNED OWL sunning itself, a SONG SPARROW, a few JUNCOS, GREAT-TAILED GRACKLES, many common ducks at Meadowlake.
In the brush/weed pile in the south-west part of the vacant lot south of Meadowlake, past the house with the big cinder block fence: 2 GREEN-TAILED TOWHEES WHITE-CROWNED SPARROWS 1 SAGE THRASHER A NORTHERN HARRIER was flying low, and 1 immature, gorgeous RED-TAILED HAWK was perched on a fence post.
