Hi all

Not only will you get the plover, you will also get both longspurs and Burrowing Owl.  This is probably the most reliable spot in Weld County now and has been for at least three years or more.  I'm pretty sure they breed here--no babies over weekend but last year I saw two families here.

Location:  From Hwy 77 and Weld CR 100 go east n Weld CR 100 for 11.5m, very large dog colony on south.  Just before west fence line on north is open field where longspurs are located.

We'll probably go look for them on my trip this Saturday.

Thanks Gary Lefko, Nunn
