We lived on the west side of Colorado Springs (near Manitou) from 1972 - 1982. Three blocks south of Garden of the Gods, where we walked our dogs most days.
List was about 120 species (I don't find the list right now). First sparked a real interest in birds when we had *Evening Grosbeaks *there! They were regulars there for several years, in large numbers, to our delight. Other species of interest: *Band-tailed Pigeons* in large numbers (Hugh Kingery can attest to that, as we sent him a photograph back in the day when we used to report our quarterly sightings on paper). Also large numbers of *Pinyon Jays* - such a treat! Jim and Rosie Watts -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Colorado Birds" group.
