Coyote caught a vole right off the trail about 100 yards from the Ashram.

Hawk must have had a meal; raven flew slow and low to pick at it - hawk flew off, leaving raven. Then along came one of the resident bald eagles who watched the whole thing from its perch.

Swimming along lakeshore at dusk. 90% sure this is a beaver and not a muskrat. Appeared to be too large, and swam with head well above water, with no body or tail visible.

This moth was about 1/2 inch from head to tail. Very colorful.

Sunning itself on a trail between a wetland area and mixed grass prairie. Not too sure on species--is it a Milk Snake??

Second time this week I've seen this falcon on the western edge of Lac Amora Open Space.

A pair of Western Grebes were doing their mating dance ("rushing") on Great Western Reservoir.

She was watching over one of her little owlets that fledged a few weeks ago.

awwwww

These two photos are 20-30 minutes apart and they showed no signs of letting up, though the action had move slightly downhill as they wrestled.

A red-tail watches the sunrise on Long's Peak from Josh's Pond.

Leucistic or hybrid?

Hopped across road in front of car, then stopped near a fencepost to dig around a little. Tried to hide by making itself small, but then it relaxed and began feeding.

Not certain on Ross v Snow. Think they're Ross's because bill seems to have relatively straight line where it meets head.

Prairie Falcon killed a young Prairie Dog, and then a Black-billed Magpie scavenged alongside.

Light juvenile
