Hi Everyone-- Today 12/10 was a nice day to be out. I spent most of the day around Chatfield Reservoir. The long-staying Brant were at the Plum Creek delta, just north of the picnic area. I scanned the liquid section of the reservoir from the marina spit and from the heron lookout. I saw hundreds of Common Mergansers, two Red-breasted Mergansers, one Common Loon, and zero jaegers. I understood that the Rusty Blackbirds were out beyond where the Brant were, but the Brant were busy chewing on leaves along the shore of Plum Creek, so I did not attempt to walk past them. One of them reminded me of a child eating spinach.
