  Same Creek:  Infinitely More Beautiful

Date:  Saturday, May 13, 2017

Limited to 10 people in three cars

Donation:  $60 per person

 

The Wyoming Hereford Ranch, just over the Colorado state line, is one of our region's premier stopover sites for migrating birds.  One goes there in spring actually expecting, not just praying, for rarities.  Crow Creek--the same Crow Creek out by Briggsdale--flows through the ranch and provides life-support for all the migrants.  The natural setting at the ranch is incomparable:  If you know Crow Creek at Briggsdale, let's just say you'll be amazed at the lushness, verdure, and general beauty here.

 

Join Ted Floyd, Editor of the American Birding Association’s Birding Magazine, for a full day exploration of this lovely area during the height of spring migration.  Ted is well known for his boundless enthusiasm, deep knowledge of all things avian and incredible birding ears. 

 

We will meet Ted at 6:15 a.m., at the Love’s Travel Stop, exit 7 off of I-25, Cheyenne, WY.  We will need to leave the Niwot Park and Ride, where we will meet to carpool, no later than 4:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 13. The price includes a gourmet picnic lunch provided by BCAS.
