SUMMARY:Pueblo Area with Denver Field Ornithologists
DESCRIPTION:Pueblo Area with DFO: Various locations for an almost-big-day to start your New Year off with a birding bang!\nThursday\, January 1\, 2026\, 6:00 AM – 5:00 PM\n(NOTE: this is the time frame for Denver-area participants. COS-area\, expect a later start/meeting time and an earlier arrival home.)\nLeader: David Suddjian\nTrip Difficulty: Moderate \nLet’s kick start our year lists and even see new birds! Start 2026 with a visit to one of Colorado’s best winter birding areas! Lake Pueblo and the Arkansas corridor downstream can be counted on for a great variety of water birds and land birds\, like loons\, ducks\, grebes\, warblers and sparrows\, and a good chance for rare wintering species. We will look for regional specialties like Scaled Quail\, Curve-billed Thrasher\, Canyon Towhee\, Bewick’s Wren\, and White-winged Dove. This will be a full day with several stops\, including viewing around Lake Pueblo SP\, along the Arkansas River\, and at Pueblo City Park. Bring a scope if you have one (we can share)\, sturdy footwear\, and bring plenty of clothing ranging from cold to pleasant. Plan for up to 1.5 miles of walking\, mostly on flat terrain. Bring snacks\, lunch and drinks. We will carpool from the Castle Rock meeting spot\, and we will have a southern rendezvous point for those living south of Denver area. \nThis trip is limited and registration will open at noon on 12/11/2025. on this webpage: https://dfobirds.org/FieldTrips/Register.aspx?TripID=22255. If you do not already have an account with DFO\, visit https://dfobirds.org/\, click “LOGIN” then click “Create an account” and follow the prompts.
