Cherry Creek SP - Developing Birder Trip (Co-sponsored trip with DFO)

Let's explore Cherry Creek SP during the evening in search of some interesting birds! The reservoir and surrounding habitats should host a nice array of waterfowl, shorebirds, gulls, and other birds. We'll start by scoping out at Pelican Point (scopes are helpful, but not necessary) and then ferry ourselves around to a few stops across the park. Of course, birders of all experience levels are welcome. Plan for up to 2 miles of walking, mostly on sand and dirt paths. Bring binoculars, water, layers, and shoes that may be ready for a bit of muddiness. There are restrooms at our meeting point and along our route.

This trip is led by Ryan Corda. 

Meet at the Pelican Point parking area at the southeast end of the lake. Enter the east side of Cherry Creek State Park via Lehigh off of Parker Road. Go just past the entrance station and turn left (south) at the first intersection. The road bends and heads west with the reservoir ahead of you. Go about 1/4 mile, just past the next intersection. The parking for Pelican Point will be on your left.
