Re: [cobirds] Idaho Springs

Doug, 

Joe gives great advice. On the way, there will be Black-headend Grosbeaks and possibly Band-tailed Pigeons (a troop of over 20 come to my feeders in Empire), Warbling Vireos and Wilson's Warblers. Will you be driving to Idaho Springs/Georgetown?  I might have some other suggestions.

Doug,

You'll have a lot to cover biking up to Guanella Pass itself and the campground near it on the Georgetown side.

So if you must find a spot near Idaho SPrings, I'd cruise around the town itself. Hummer feeders? 

COnsider a cruise around Georgetown, but main goal is the PASS, where you'll find habitat and birds

not easy at lower altitudes. 3 toed woodpecker,  rare WW Crossbill and it may take a while to search for 

and find WT Ptarmigan at the pass.

Good luck.

Let me know what you checked and saw please.

Does anyone know of a decent birding spot/trail in close proximity to Idaho Springs? I'm biking Guanella pass tomorrow and was thinking of heading up early to do some birding.

Thank you.
