Canon City field trip on April 19 open to public

I will lead a combined Arkansas Valley Audubon Society and Aiken Audubon field trip to the Canon City area on April 29. This is a very good time of year to take advantage of early spring migrants including several possible warbler species, Black Phoebe (this rare species has bred in the Canon City area for the past several years) as well as some of the other birds I have been reporting on here.

We will take advantage of what spring brings us and do birding du jour. Those coming from/thru Pueblo--Meet at NE corner of K-Mart parking lot, Hwy 50 West and Elizabeth, to carpool; departure at 7:45 am. Bring lunch. There will be a good amount of walking over easy to moderate terrain. To make a reservation, contact Donna Emmons, 676-5666/369-9704, emmons7@yahoo.com. Others--meet at the green (yes, green-it’s hard to miss) dinosaur located in front of Walmart on the north side of H50 a few hundred yards west of the first stop-light as you enter Canon City from the east (or a hundred feet east of the stop-light at Dozier Ave if you come from the west). We will all meet up in Canon City at 8:15 am.

This, as well as all Arkansas Valley Audubon Society field trips, is free and open to the public.
