Spring Snow Storm Along Highline Canal Denver

This picture was taken on April 15, 2013 along the Highline Canal. Just west of mile marker 37 at Welshire Golf Course.


Three Ponds Park - Along Highline Canal - Cherry Hills

This is a great little park to stroll around. It is located just off of Colorado Blvd & Quincy in Cherry Hills Village. There is parking and the open space portion of Three Ponds is dotted with old equestrian jumps. This park is just off the Highline Canal trail, which begins near the foothills in Roxborough park (near Chatfield reservoir). Southwest of Denver, and winds gently 70+ miles north/ northeast out to Green Valley Ranch near Denver International Airport.


Peregrine Falcon Along Highline Canal

I believe this is a Peregrine falcon. Any one know different?
