Hello Robert, Good morning. I know very little about hummingbirds and their habits and habitats. However, I am very open to helping you with the research. I live on the intersection of urban and open spaces in southwest Fort Collins. I am concerned about our changing land use and impacts of fragmentation.
You can look up my coordinates on a GIS map and see if this terrain and path suits you. Regardless, please feel free to contact me. I will have no concerns of your team being on my property (~10 Acres). In fact, if you can run additional investigations on birds and their (changing) lifestyles, do reach out. I am serious. Please visit my property. Bring your colleague and collaborator. I invite you all. A standing document for open lands (note: subarea 3 in the ‘Plan for the region between Fort Collins and Loveland’ , 1995, a Larimer County commissioned document is being being shredded, as two long term projects ‘heavy industrial use ‘and a hospital use’ are underway. I was unable to get the attention of the regional Audubon society to pay attention. Your work will. 6716 Wildflower Road Fort Collins CO-80526 My best, Vara Vissa 19702316083 Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 25, 2020, at 12:03 PM, Robert Hanna <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello, > > I am currently working with Dr. Alejandro Rico-Guevara from the University of > Washington.
