Description

This is a co-sponsored trip with Denver Field Ornithologists.  Registration is on the DFO page.  Click here to view the event registration page

This trip will walk along one or two trails in Staunton State Park seeking possible Northern Pygmy-Owl and other resident forest birds. There is a chance for early Williamson's Sapsucker, and maybe an American Three-toed Woodpecker, and returning bluebirds. Birds may be spotty and scarce so early in the season, but we can expect a cross-section of mid-elevation species. Plan for 3-4 miles of hiking at a birding pace on gentle to moderate grades. We will carpool from the meeting place. State Park pass required for all vehicles. Bring snacks and a drink and light hiking shoes. Restrooms limited.

This trip is led by David Suddjian.
