* Clear Springs Ranch (CSR) (where our banding station has been now for over twenty years) is now an El Paso County Park. 

It is about 10 miles south of Colorado Springs, exit 123 off I25.

The area has previously been known as the "Hanna Ranch" and then the "Colorado Springs State Wildlife Area".

Not much has changed in the habitat over the years; however, limiting access (think: homeless campers, shooters, hunters and vandals) has been great for us banding.

The area is now open to the public on a walk-in basis.

The county has developed the area wtih a parking area, restrooms, picnic tables, and built a ~4.5 mile  multi-use recreational trail (hikiing, horse or bike, no OHV)
