Leader: Kathanne Lynch
We will carpool to the Fawn Brook Inn in Allenspark, CO (2 hours away) to see Gray-crowned (maybe Hepburns too), Brown-capped, and Black Rosy-Finches. This is a traditional site in Colorado to see these birds. After an early lunch at a nearby restaurant (the Inn does not open for lunch until April), people may return to Evergreen or continue on for the second part of this trip. Part II will be in the plains north of Boulder where we will view raptors: Ferruginous, Rough-legged, Red-tailed and Cooper’s Hawks; Northern Harrier; Bald and Golden Eagles; and Falcons.
Please confirm your participation on this trip before Thursday Feb. 11 with Kathanne at 303-968-4750. You will return to Evergreen by 7:00 pm (or by 3:00 pm if going to see only the finches).
