Spring critters return!

Great to see the first Hummers of the year, along with the return of the songbirds and lizards!

At the beginning of April, I noticed a pair of Red-tailed Hawks soaring above the greenbelt. I also spotted them sitting in the junipers, as well as carrying sticks up into a tall Aspen where they were building a nest (or maybe reinforcing an abandoned one). A week ago a storm moved in and we had a powerful micro-burst of wind. Since then, I haven’t seen them around the nest so they may have found another spot with more protection.

She was a very good girl on her trip to the vet for her rabies vaccine booster!

Taking the new eBike out for its paces and recording the sights. I’m also including a hike to the greenbelt graffiti art in a road underpass. Finally, a video of the Skyway Rail and a dust devil!

March coyotes

Posted on April 3, 2026 by Jabo

We have a pair of coyotes who regularly hunt our greenbelt. I’ve named them Fred and Ethel and I think Ethel (who has a slightly lighter coat of fur) is expecting. They join the other predators like the pair of harriers and now a pair of red tail hawks. Hopefully they’re feasting on the mice, pack rats and even the fat Gunnison Prairie Dogs that populate the area. The dog pictured looks flustered!
