Field Notes

Description:

These chicks were spotted along with their mother (which I posted seperately) off of the part of the Switzerland Trail that begins above Gold Hill, CO. Every time we went offroading there this summer we'd see females with their chicks and we even spotted a male in a courtship on one particular day!
