Good morning.
I know very little about hummingbirds and their habits and habitats.
However, I am very open to helping you with the research. I live on the intersection of urban and open spaces in southwest Fort Collins. I am
concerned about our changing land use and impacts of fragmentation.
You can look up my coordinates on a GIS map and see if this terrain and path suits you. Regardless, please feel free to contact me. I will have no concerns of your team being on my property (~10 Acres). In fact, if you can run additional investigations on birds and their (changing) lifestyles, do reach out. I am serious. Please visit my property. Bring your colleague and collaborator. I invite you all.
A standing document for open lands (note: subarea 3 in the ‘Plan for the region between Fort Collins and Loveland’ , 1995, a Larimer County commissioned document is being being shredded, as two long term projects ‘heavy industrial use ‘and a hospital use’ are underway. I was unable to get the attention of the regional Audubon society to pay attention. Your work will.
