Re: [cobirds] Burrowing Owls and security guards, Adams county

That is funny, but as a Muslim birder this stuff is not much of a joke to me. I am afraid to go on any birding expeditions out of the country right now, or to even try to get on a plane to go somewhere in this country. I was harassed and followed by security once for birding at the Xeriscape Gard

I had a rent a cop try that with me at Marston. He was inside the fence and I was outside. He got as far with me as the rent a cop did with Norm at DIA. I almost pleaded with him to call the cops. I promised I would wait right there. Imagine that when no cops showed up. Ira Sanders Golden On

I was the other birder that the stupendously self-important "officer" (or whatever she was- a wannabe of some sort) attempted to chase off. I chose not to be chased. When she said, "you need to move along" (with sort of the same intonation one would use on a ten-year-old potential miscreant, loi

Today at 10 am my husband and I got out of our car on 96th Avenue near DIA and briefly saw 2 Burrowing Owls. We used our spotting scope & we noticed a couple of oil company trucks not too far away from the burrows. We drove on & returned about 20 minutes later. At the same spot was a HSS securi
