Re: [cobirds] Chapungu Sculpture Park

Thanks for pointing out this cool park, Norma, which is an eBird hotspot, located just east

of I-25 at the Hwy 34 exit. Look at a map to figure the complex roads there. Park in the large lot between the Park and the shopping center. 

The Park is free and open to the public. https://chapunguatcenterra.com

Chapungu (CHA-poon-goo) is the local name for the Balateur Eagle of Zimbabwe, its national emblem.

To add interest to birding there, the African sculptures are cool - my grandkids loved it.

For a list of birds seen there so far, go to the hotspot overview at 

https://ebird.org/hotspot/L5006963?yr=all&m=&rank=mrec

Here's hoping that you'll have a chance to go there and add your checklists to the eBird database at this 

cool (hot) spot.
