(Mallard in Cherry Creek - Denver, CO - May 16, 2008 7:46AM)
I have a 21 mile commute to work that I get to enjoy one or two times a week. All but three miles of my commute are along the South Platte River or Cherry Creek. I always see and hear tons of birds along the route, especially in the morning. Today, I decided to try to identify as many birds as possible. Here's what I came up with, along with a bunch of other birds I was unable to identify. Birds, another reason to ride your bike!
Great Blue Heron
Western Meadowlark
Red Winged Blackbird
Canada Goose
American White Pelican
Killdeer
Mourning Dove
Rock Pigeon
Northern Cardinal
Mallard
Amercian Robin

my one buddy, general lee, saw a bird on the way to work this morning. it honked at him through the driver's window of a ford explorer after cutting him off. lee later identified the bird as a speckle-throated-tennessee-bender.
I'll bend tennesse in your speckled throat.
