Birdability - Denver

[Hugh Kingery]

Denver Audubon has initiated a field trip package for birders with disabilities. Today's hike, led by Bob Roark, went along the Sand Creek Greenway (near where the Groove-billed Ani showed up some years ago). We didn't see an Ani, or anything other birds to raise an alert. We did see a surprising number of American Goldfinches --31 -- a bird we have seen few of recently where we live. Otherwise the list of 14 species included 3 ducks, an American Tree Sparrow, and 25 House Finches.

But we enjoyed the company and the enthusiasm of the birders on the walk. Picture attached.

Hugh, this might be the best photo of birding I've ever seen!

Birding magazine and the American Birding Association are feverishly in pursuit of photos that credibly capture the experience of birding in the 2020s. Folks, if you have images even half as good as this one, feel free to bring them to my attention. We might well be able to run them in Birding or other ABA media.
