[cobirds] Field Trip Announcement: Greenlee Preserve, Boulder Co., Nov. 1, "Lafayette Birds!"

Please join us Sunday, Nov. 1, 2020, for our monthly "Lafayette Birds!" outing at Greenlee Preserve, eastern Boulder County. We will convene at 1pm, Mountain STANDARD Time, at the base of the very short trail up to the preserve proper. We will bird in small groups until about 3pm.

Tons (literally, well over a ton) of cackling geese have returned to the area, and we'll sort through the flock for rarities, hybrids, and spuhs. Early Nov. is a great time of year for flyover snow and Ross geese, and we'll be on the lookout (and listenout!) for them. Might see some sandhill cranes on VisMig too. Grebes of several species have been putting on a fine show of late, the showy hooded mergansers are back, and a couple of white-throated sparrows have been visiting the feeders at the preserve.

This outing, sponsored by the City of Lafayette, is free and open to the public. Children and curiosity-seekers welcome. Bring binocs and a camera if you have 'em. Bring good cheer. No whining. No experience necessary, no RSVP required. Just show up, and we'll get sorted into groups, and off we'll go! 

Masks are mandatory. No exceptions, no exemptions. No mask = no birds, no respect, no friends.

Remember to Fall Back! See you on Sunday!
