We saw broad-tailed and rufous hummingbirds at Cherry Creek State Park last week - at the 12-Mile Group picnic area and wetlands trailhead on the southeast side of the park (ask at the entrance station). Lark buntings might be around there but we didn't see any. They are prairie birds; try the Plains Conservation Center on the east side of Aurora, CO. Usually we see them on the Pawnee National Grasslands but they probably have started their move south and might be at the Center now. Other folks might have good suggestions. Polly Reetz
