Experience the magic of the evening in the hogbacks at private Ken Caryl Ranch as we seek the Common Poorwill. Poorwills are a common inhabitant of the area and we expect to hear them, and hopefully we will see some, too. Enjoy the coming of evening and night with the dusk chorus, and learn about the bird community of the hogbacks. We will carpool to the birding spot. Plan for a mile of walking on a dirt road.

This trip is led by David Suddjian. 

Meet at Ken Caryl 470 Park n Ride lot, near the north side. 7450 Shaffer Pkwy Littleton, CO 80127
