"Looking For a Few Good Birders"
The Indian Peaks Bird Counts began in 1982 as a Christmas Bird
Count, complete with a count circle divided into areas that birders adopt.
This year will be the 41st year.
We are trying to recruit some "young-legs" with sharp eyes and
ears to help with the bird count. Higher elevation areas, mostly hikes into the
Indian Peaks Wilderness, are still available for this year's count - Jasper
Lake, Diamond Lake, and Woodland Lake. All of these are strenuous hikes, but
beautiful country and a nice way to spend the day. They present a good array of
birds typical of Front Range upper montane, subalpine, and alpine habitats.
The count is run like a Christmas Bird Count, so it is fairly
non-structured - just hike the trails and record what you see and/or hear. The
Summer Count runs from June 1 through July 15 - you go out one day within the
period. The count areas listed above are best done in late June or July.
If you would be interested in taking on one of the areas,
whether by yourself or forming a team, please contact me directly. I can get
you more detailed information.
Thank you,
Dave Hallock
