Posted on behalf of JB Hayes. "Hi, I stopped at SPR [South Platte Reservoir] for a few minutes this a.m. A large chunk of the east end is open. A scope is required. There was a Long-tailed Duck (winter female or first-year male), a dozen Ruddy Ducks, and a mixed flock of 25 Lesser and Greater Scaup. There are lots of gulls, but all I could make out for sure were Herring and Ring-billed...Thanks JB [Hayes]"
