Description/Notes:
Lagerman Reservoir, Boulder County, Colorado. Location precision: within an 89m radius. Maybe fifteen minutes of sun when most were out, but one or two were flying in the gloom. 45 F, cloudy, ~10mph gusts. I'm not sure if the numbers are higher than that big fall migration two years ago, but they're definitely more obvious this time. just racing around intersections like they're swallows when it's hot enough.
